Orion 0.9.0 has been released, the distribution can be downloaded at

Full EJB 1.1 support.
Advanced Obect<->Relational mapping support including support for the types
Collection, Set, List, Map and the legacy types Vector, Hashtable,
Properties and Type[]. See docs/OR-howto.txt for instructions.
RMI HTTP-tunneling support (See docs/rmi-http-tunneling-howto.txt for
instructions).
Native SSL and cert-based client-auth support.
Full J2EE support (including .ear file format support etc).
Application hot-swap support, ability to redeploy applications without a
server restart.
Numerous EJB/JSP bugfixes.
Improved application-client support.
Most of the bugs reported to this list has been fixed, if one hasnt then
please mail [EMAIL PROTECTED] describing the problem.
There are major configuration file changes from 0.8.2 so there's some
reconfiguring and relearning to do for people who are upgrading,
but it'll hopefully be for the best in the long run. For instance
data-sources.xml is a lot simpler for newcomers in the new release which
should simplify getting up to speed a lot.
A quick intro on the new architecture (how to create/deploy an application):
