[ANNOUNCEMENT] Apache Commons DBCP 1.3 and 1.4 Released

The Apache Commons project would like to announce the immediate
availability of Commons DBCP versions 1.3 and 1.4.

Commons DBCP is a database connection pool. Version 1.4 supports
JDBC 4, so requires JDK 1.6.  Version 1.3 supports JDBC 3.
Applications running under JDK 1.4-1.5 must use DBCP 1.3.
Applications running under JDK 1.6 should use DBCP 1.4. Other than
support for the added methods in JDBC 4, there is nothing new or
different in DBCP 1.4 vs. DBCP 1.3.

In addition to support for JDBC 4 in 1.4, both releases contain
numerous bug fixes and enhancements. Support for pooling managed
connections and callable statements has been added, and several
long-standing API consistency and reliability issues have been
resolved.  A detailed list of changes can be found in the release notes:

  http://www.apache.org/dist/commons/dbcp/RELEASE-NOTES.txt

Commons DBCP depends on Commons Pool. DBCP users are encouraged to
upgrade to the latest Commons Pool version - currently 1.5.4.

Commons DBCP is available in either binary or source form from the
following downloads page:

  http://commons.apache.org/downloads/download_dbcp.cgi

Please verify signatures using the KEYS file available at the above
location when downloading the release.

[ANN] Release of Ant 1.8.0

Hi,

on behalf of the Ant development team, I have the pleasure to announce 
the release of Ant 1.8.0.

Some of the features included in the new release are :

    *  Lexically scoped local properties, i.e. properties that are only 
defined inside a target, sequential block or similar environment.
    * <import> can now import from any file- or URL-providing resource - 
this includes <javaresource>.
    * Various improvements to the directory scanning code that help with 
symbolic link cycles (as can be found on MacOS X Java installations for 
example) and improve scanning performance. For big directory trees the 
improvement is dramatic.
    * The way developers can extend Ant's property expansion algorithm 
has been rewritten (breaking the older API) to be easier to use and be 
more powerful.
    * a new top level element extension-point allows build files to be 
extended with custom targets more easily
    * At the same time the if and unless attributes have been rewritten 
to do the expected thing if applied to a property expansion (i.e. 
if="${foo}" will mean "yes, do it" if ${foo} expands to true, in Ant 
1.7.1 it would mean "no" unless a property named "true" existed). This 
adds "testing conditions" as a new use-case to property expansion.
    * Ant now requires Java 1.4 or later
    * new task include provides an alternative to <import> that should 
be preferred when you don't want to override any targets
    * numerous bug fixes and improvements as documented in Bugzilla and 
in WHATSNEW
