Happy winter solstice dear friends! To brighten your world in these dark times the Neo4j team is happy to bring to you the sixth and final milestone release of Neo4j 1.2. Those of you living down under might not need your day to be brighter, but the fact that the next release of Neo4j will be 1.2 final should still be plenty of reason to rejoy and play with the new features in Neo4j. The final set of features to make it into Neo4j 2010, with this milestone, are:
Support for the new integrated indexes in the Neo4j Server: The RESTful interface for Neo4j supports the new Neo4j index system, which means that you can now use the same indexes that you create using the Embedded API in Java, Ruby or your favorite language through the RESTful API of the Neo4j Server. Plugin support for the Neo4j Server: The Neo4j Server can now be extended with plugins for adding your own custom traversals or even a simple domain API to the RESTful API. This can be done by plugging in to either Nodes, Relationships or the GraphDatabase itself and extending these entities with further methods. These are then automatically discoverable and invokable through the Neo4j REST API. For more information on this release, and the above mentioned features, turn your attention to the blog post on the subject: http://blog.neo4j.org/2010/12/neo4j-12-m06-is-out-better-rest.html Neo4j 1.2 final, that is scheduled to be released in the next few weeks, will not include any new features but simply include fixes to any bugs you manage to find during your Christmas hacking party, and possibly some minor polish to the already stable Graph Database.
