There's a new beta build available on our Web site:

Changes
-------------
1. The source code distribution 
(http://protege.stanford.edu/download/prerelease/plugins/protege_src.3.0.zip) 
now includes an Ant build file.  The build file is called "build.xml" and 
is located in the root directory.  For instructions on using the build 
file, please see "readme.html" which is also located in the root 
directory.  Thanks go to Olivier Dameron for submitting the build file.

2. Modal dialogs now cancel/close on an escape.  Please report any that don't.

3. Mnemonics have been added to most menu items (for keyboard access).

4. The Project menu has been split into two menus.

5. The class trees on different tabs are now synchronized by default. This 
behavior can be controlled at the application level from the Window menu.

6. The focus is now painted on toolbar buttons so that it's possible to 
access much of the UI by keyboard.

7. Side effect events, such as own-slot-value-changed, are no longer 
generated by default while a frame is being deleted.  If you want these 
events, you must call 
KnowledgeBase.setGenerateDeletingFrameEventsEnabled(true).  If they are 
generated, then both the event and the frame may be queried to see if they 
are one of the side-effect events.

8. Specifying client side ports to use in the multi-user server environment 
(in order to work around firewall problems) now works better.  The ports 
can be reused in subsequent connections without waiting several minutes for 
the connection to time-out.

9. Fixed/simplified Unix versions of the "run_protege" scripts.

10. Fixed server metaproject to work on Unix and Windows.
