 # Development:

 - The new AMQP 1.0 JMS client had its first release as mentioned earlier.
   We have been working on improvements and fixes since then and will be
   looking to do a 0.2.0 release imminently.

 - Discussions and work to begin preparing for a Qpid Proton 0.10 have
   begun, incorporating some major SASL related changes since 0.9. Work
   also continues on expanding language support for the new Reactor API's
   to Go, C++, Ruby, and Java, some of which may be aimed at the following
   release.

 - Following the Qpid 0.32 release there was intent to reorganise the
   repository structure to better support releasing the various components
   on their own schedules going forward, as has been the case for newer
   components. The Java broker, earlier clients and associated items have
   been relocated to a new trunk, with further relocations still to come
   for other components.
