21 December 2001 - Avalon Framework 4.1.1 ReleasedThe Avalon team is proud to announce the 4.1.1 final release of the Avalon Framework. This release is a minor bugfix release. The prior release was compiled with JDK 1.4's compiler, making it incompatible with previous JDKs About Avalon: The Avalon project is Apache's Java Server Framework. It is separated into five sub projects: Framework, Excalibur, LogKit, Cornerstone, and Phoenix. Its purpose is to simplify server side programming for Java based projects. It formalizes serveral best of breed practices and patterns for server side programming. For more information about Avalon, please go to http://avalon.apache.org. About Avalon Framework 4.1.1: The Avalon Framework formalizes the contracts and patterns used in the other Avalon projects. It is derived from modern software engineering techniques and aims to provide a solid basis on which to build server products. What that means is that we define the central interface Component. We also define the relationship (contract) a component has with peers, ancestors and children. This documentation introduces you to those patterns, interfaces, and relationships. The Avalon Framework raises the abstraction level from Object-Oriented Programming concept one notch to the Component-Oriented Programming model. This enables programmers to concern themselves with assemblies of classes, rather than the classes themselves--thus reducing the number of things the programmer must keep in mind, and speeding up application development. The Avalon Framework is already used in Cocoon2, an XML publishing framework. The Avalon Framework is also used in Apache JAMES, a Java(tm) Mail Server. Another project that is built on Avalon Framework is Jestkop, a cross-platform replacement for your ordinary desktop. If you are evaluating Avalon and want the proof that it's claims are valid check them out.

This release is the first in a series of betas that will lead to a production quality release of Tomcat 4.0 later this year. At the same time, active development work on Tomcat 4.1 will begin. NOTE - While the code for Tomcat 4.0 running in stand alone mode is considered to be near production quality, the web connector to run behind Apache is still alpha quality code, with limited functionality. It is likely that there will be interim updates of the web connector software in between beta releases of the entire Tomcat 4.0 package.
