Hi Here is the Apache Felix Declarative Services 1.6.2 release implementing the most recent Declarative Services Specification Version 1.2. Please note, that this is the first Java 5 only release of this bundle. Going forward we will completely switch over to only supporting Java 5. If there should ever be a request from the community to create a build suitable for pre-Java 5 platforms we will branch of the 1.6.2 release tag and create a Java 1.4 build from the branch (as of now, there is no such request). I want to particularly thank David Jencks and Pierre De Rop for their hard work tracking down a number of nasty concurrency issues ! The issues completed in this release are listed in the release notes at (also attached at the end of this message): https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=12310100&version=12315248 Staging repository: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachefelix-029/ You can use this UNIX script to download the release and verify the signatures: http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/felix/trunk/check_staged_release.sh Usage: sh check_staged_release.sh 029 /tmp/felix-staging Please vote to approve this release: [ ] +1 Release [ ] -1 Don't release, because ... This vote will be open for at least 72 hours.
