Hi, The main intention of this release is to get java7 file attribute api's in use, which can be a great performance improvment for java7 mac & linux users. There should also be some improvement for 1.5/1.6 users, and this release is java 1.5+.
These are totally new apis and I appreciate java7 users testing. We solved 2 jar plugin issues: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=11137&version=16000 We solved 3 maven-archiver issues (+ a whole lot of plexus-issues): http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=11761&version=15281 There are still a couple of jar-plugin issues left in JIRA: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&pid=11137&status=1 There are still a couple of maven-archiver issues left in JIRA: http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&jqlQuery=project+%3D+MSHARED+AND+component+%3D+maven-archiver+AND+status+%3D+Open Staging repo (contains both): https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/maven-053/ Staging sites (sync pending): http://maven.apache.org/shared/maven-archiver-2.4.2/ http://maven.apache.org/plugins/maven-jar-plugin-2.3.2 Guide to testing staged releases: http://maven.apache.org/guides/development/guide-testing-releases.html Vote open for 72 hours.
