Automatic gc of COM objects & stubs

I saw the below news item on sourceforge, but there doesn't seem to be a
Jawin release available with this new functionality.  Any idea on when the
next release will be out that has automatic gc of com objects and stubs?

Summary: Automatic gc of COM objects & stubs
The calling java thread release COM objects automatically, after the JVM
garbage collector collects them. There is no longer a need to call
COMPtr.close() from the application code. Change works with existing code,
close() can still be called. (contrbuted by Claude Eisenhut).
