Lots of client improvements for from 1.0 to 1.1:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/DMAP-40?jql=project%20%3D%20DMAP%20AND%20fixVersion%20%3D%20%221.1.0%20Java%22
-Type is now part of a pattern, before it was an attribute of the device. So
essentially we have proper pattern ranking, so 1 pattern can be ranked above
another pattern.
-DeviceMapClient factory. Easier and less error prone to initialize and pattern
index the client.
-Device object. So you can now classify a string as a Device, this gives you
access to Device specific attributes, instead of just a generic map. This is
important when we want to split our attributes up into 3 classifications:
device, os, and browser.
-Better logging.
Might be able to swing ApacheCon NA. Current schedule doesnt allow me much free
time outside of my current contributions, but that may change next year. So too
early to tell.

Subject: Re: Java client release and graduation
Can you tell us about major differences between 1.0.1 and 1.1?
Not sure, how long it'll take but if there is a notable feature or improvement,
it would be worth sharing at next months ApacheCon Europe.
Did you also propose something for ApacheCon NA or is it too far for you to
reach?
Thanks,Werner

I would like to go ahead and propose we release the java client 1.1 before
starting the graduating process. While its not required, I think releasing the
java client and publishing it to maven will give me more ammunition and
momentum for the graduation process. :)
So im going to fix 1 more ticket and then begin the voting process for the 1.1
java client later this week.
Also, Radu, I updated the devicedata and javaclient modules in the whiteboard.
I simply copied the moinmoin wiki markup into the source, so im not 100% sure
the markup is valid.
So... once again, I actually feel that redoing the site so its "ours", as in
custom to devicemap, will be a good thing and help build the excitement
required to get us motivated to graduate. So I do not want to lose momentum on
this...!
thanks,
