[ecf-dev] 0.4.0 stable

[Scott Lewis <slewis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Folks,

I'm doing the final preparations today (Sun 9/4) for the 0.4.0 stable 
release.  There are quite a lot of new things:  e.g. support for google 
talk IM, multiuser chat support in xmpp, simplified namespace extension 
point, simplified IContainer and ContainerFactory APIs, generic server 
bug fixes, server performance improvements, JMS provider and server 
initial implementation, etc.   I'll produce a more complete list of the 
changes/improvements today.

If any have an opportunity to get/build the latest from CVS, and do some 
additional testing (there is an ECF Team multiuser chat group at 
ecf1.osuosl.org) it would be very helpful.  I suspect/expect that the 
presence/jabber/google/multiuser chat piece of ECF could get a number of 
users (particularly with the foundation project teams).

Also...I'm going to be interviewed by Ed Burnette for an eclipsezone 
spotlight feature on ECF:  http://www.eclipsezone.com during this next 
week and so this will drive some attention to the 0.4.0 release (good 
thing).

Thanks,

Scott
