.::06 August 2008 - Apache FOP 0.95 Released::.

Apache FOP (Formatting Objects Processor) is a print formatter driven by XSL Formatting Objects and an output independent formatter. It is a Java application that reads a formatting object tree and renders the resulting pages to a specified output. Output formats currently supported include PDF, PS, PCL, AFP, Print and TIFF/PNG. Apache FOP is Open Source software and published under the Apache License v2.0.

It took longer than expected but we're happy to present the final Apache FOP 0.95 stable release. This is basically a bugfix release to 0.95beta. The most important changes since the previous stable release (0.94) are:

many bug fixes and improvements in tables, better support for keeps and breaks, new features: conditional borders and background on columns and header/footer/body;
better image handling thanks to the new image loading framework provided by the Apache XML Graphics Commons dependency;
improvements and bugfixes for font handling and font auto-detection/-registration;
performance improvements and memory optimizations for the property handling in the FO tree.
elimination of a potential multi-threading problem.
some feature enhancements for RTF output (partial fo:leader support, fo:page-number-citation)

Please note that support for Java 1.3 has been dropped. Only one type of binaries is provided now, that will run on 1.4+ JREs.

Other important release notes are available at http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/0.95/releaseNotes_0.95.html

.::31 July 2008 - Apache UIMA-AS (Asynchronous Scaleout) add-on for UIMA, version 2.2.2-incubating, Now Available::.

The Apache UIMA team is pleased to announce the first release of the UIMA-AS add-on for UIMA. (The release number is 2.2.2-incubating to correspond with the base UIMA level).

UIMA-AS adds a highly flexible, robust, and easy to use scaleout capability to the core UIMA framework; it can be considered to be a next-generation replacement for the original CPM (Collection Processing Management) scaleout that is part of the core UIMA framework.

Now you can selectively scale up (to take advantage of multiple cores) or scale out (over local and/or wide area networks) just those analytics that need the scaling, thus allowing optimization of computing resources. UIMA-AS has been successfully used on multiple projects, and scaled out to 100's of cores, with no limit in sight.

It makes use of JMS (Java Messaging Services) and uses Apache ActiveMQ to support messaging between components. Already written UIMA Components can take advantage of UIMA-AS scaleout with no code or component descriptor changes.

There is a short writeup that describes more details about the new capabilities and how to get started using it, on the UIMA website: http://incubator.apache.org/uima/doc-uimaas-what.html

UIMA is a component framework supporting integration and deployment of components for the analysis of unstructured content such as text, audio, and video; the main web-site is here: http://incubator.apache.org/uima/index.html

Thank you for your interest in Apache UIMA-AS. We look forward to hearing about your experience in using this new capability.

INCUBATION DISCLAIMER

Apache UIMA is an effort undergoing incubation at The Apache Software Foundation (ASF). Incubation is required of all newly accepted projects until a further review indicates that the infrastructure, communications, and decision making process have stabilized in a manner consistent with other successful ASF projects. While incubation status is not necessarily a reflection of the completeness or stability of the code, it does indicate that the project has yet to be fully endorsed by the ASF.

.::20 July 2008 - Apache Archiva 1.1 Released::.

The Apache Archiva team is pleased to announce the release of Archiva 1.1 Archiva is a build artifact repository manager for use with build tools such as Maven, Continuum and Ant. It has features like repository search and browse, securing repositories, identifying unknown artifacts and reporting of repository problems. Aside from these, it can also act as a nearby (proxy) cache of popular global repositories. The latest release is now available here: http://archiva.apache.org/download.html If you have any questions, please consult: - the web site: http://archiva.apache.org - the archiva-user mailing list: http://archiva.apache.org/mail-lists.html New in Archiva 1.1 ================ * Artifact Uploads To simplify adding artifacts to a repository, an upload form has been put in place that allows you to put an artifact and POM into the repository without the need for the Maven deploy-file command. * RSS RSS is now available for getting a feed of new artifacts being added to a given repository. Two types of feeds are generated by Archiva: new artifacts in a repository and new versions of a specific artifact. * Virtual Repositories Virtual repositories or repository groups allows downloading from a group of repositories via one url (group url). * Timeouts Connections to remote repositories can now have a configurable timeout value * New Runtime Bundle The application is now distributed using Jetty 6.1 and it's documented configuration, rather than the previous Plexus application server bundle. It continues to use the Java Service Wrapper (v3.2.3) for application monitoring, though the configuration has been improved, particularly with regard to separating the application configuration from the installation. * Using Spring Archiva now uses the Spring Framework as it's underlying container instead of Plexus. This results in a boost in performance and stability for the web application in particular. * Using Apache Jackrabbit WebDAV Servlet Archiva now uses Apache Jackrabbit's WebDAV servlet for serving repository content instead of plexus-webdav. The change results in reduced codebase complexity, increased standards compliance, better webdav client support and a small peformance boost.
