[ANNOUNCE] Apache Tuscany/SCA 2.0 M3 released

[ant elder <an...@apache.org>]

The Apache Tuscany team are pleased to announce the third milestone
release of the Tuscany SCA 2.0 project.

Apache Tuscany provides a runtime environment based on the Service
Component Architecture (SCA) which are a set of specifications aimed
at simplifying SOA application development. The first SCA
specifications where published by the Open SOA Collaboration group
(www.osoa.org) and are implemented in the Tuscany 1.x runtime, the
specification are now being standardized at OASIS as part of the Open
Composite Services Architecture (Open CSA) and these are the basis of
this new Tuscany 2.x runtime.

The main features of this third milestone release are new support for
the BPEL and Spring specifications, support for ZIP format
contributions, and a new easy to install SCA runtime for Apache
Tomcat. See the RELEASE_NOTES and CHANGES file for more details about
the M3 release, and to download the distributions please go to:
