---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Colm O hEigeartaigh <cohei...@apache.org> Date: Mon, Feb 14, 2011 at 5:15 PM Subject: [ATTN] WSS4J 1.6-alpha distribution To: d...@ws.apache.org, us...@ws.apache.org All, I have created an "unofficial" WSS4J 1.6-alpha release. I was going to call a vote and push it to Maven Central as an "alpha" release, but I have decided to wait until the beta before doing this. The distribution is available here: http://people.apache.org/~coheigea/stage/wss4j/1.6.0-alpha/dist/ and the Maven artifacts are available here: http://people.apache.org/~coheigea/stage/wss4j/1.6.0-alpha/maven/ Please download and play around with it etc. All the usual caveats apply - it is an alpha version only, *not* suitable for production in any way, and the APIs are subject to change. *Now* is your chance to object to any changes that have been made, or to suggest alterations, tweaks, etc. The 1.6 release will *not* be backwards compatible with 1.5.x, and so some work will be required for third-party projects to upgrade to WSS4J 1.6. Rampart devs in particular should take note - please do not raise objections in a months time when I call a vote, now is the time. I've just merged a CXF branch that upgraded from WSS4J 1.5.x -> 1.6 to trunk. A rough timeline for this release is as follows: 11 Feb - alpha release 25 Feb - beta release 4 Mar - RC 11 Mar - Vote 91 issues have been closed or resolved for 1.6 (please see JIRA for more details). 6 issues remain to be fixed at this point.
