Hello,

Is there somebody reading this thread? I hope so, so that this maintenance
release fulfills its objectives.

I believe no other 1.0.1 versions have been cut, but the tag is still
outdated: the current matterhorn_init_d.sh file does not correctly start
Felix 3 as a service.

Apart from that, I just realized that the ZipUtil.java version in that tag
is also outdated: it's the old one, using the native Java Zip libraries, and
therefore lacking support for >4GB files. We have been instructing our
fellow Spanish adopters to patch the 1.0.x version with the ZipUtil file in
the trunk, to allow them working with big zip files, but this is really
painful[1]. It would be nice (I'd say indispensable) to include the new
ZipUtil version in the maintenance release, or even updating the 1.0.x
branch that (apparently) everybody is using.

I know that the Christmas Holidays have slowed down things a little (btw.
Happy New Year to you all), but still we shouldn't forget these issues that
are easy to include and solve two very annoying issues in the current
version.

Best regards,
Rubén

[1] Has somebody a better solution to get the big Zip files working?
