Hi!

I'd like to announce that Commons VFS 1.0 has been released.

Commons VFS provides a single API for accessing various different file
systems. It presents a uniform view of the files from various different
sources, such as the files on local disk, on an HTTP server, or inside a
Zip archive.
For example, you can use filenames like
"tar:gz:http://anyhost/dir/mytar.tar.gz!/mytar.tar!/path/in/tar/README.txt"
to access a compressed tar file located on a web server.

Commons VFS 1.0 is the first release


For more information on Commons VFS, please visit its website:

Commons VFS is available in either binary or source form from:

    http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads-commons-vfs.cgi


Happy New Year !!

Mario Ivankovits
on behalf of the Commons community

PS: Thanks to everyone who contributed (in any way - testing, patches,
discussions, development, etc) to the project and finally helped to make
this release happen.
