[ANNOUNCE] Apache Directory LDAP API 1.0.0-M19 released

[Emmanuel Lecharny <el...@apache.org>]

The Apache Directory Team is proud to announce the availability of the
1.0.0-M19 version of the Apache Directory LDAP API.

The Apache Directory LDAP client API is an ongoing effort to provide
an enhanced LDAP API, as a replacement for JNDI and the existing LDAP
API (jLdap and Mozilla LDAP API).

This is a schema aware API, with some convenient ways to access a LDAP
server. This API is not only targeting the Apache Directory Server,
but should work pristine with any LDAP server.

It's also an extensible API : new Controls, schema elements and
network layer could be added or used in the near future. It's also
OSGi capable.
