[ANNOUNCEMENT] Apache Jakarta Commons Logging 1.1 Released

The Jakarta Commons team are pleased to announced that Apache Jakarta
Commons
Logging (JCL) 1.1 has been released. JCL is a thin bridging API for
logging with adapters for many common logging systems. Read more about
JCL at http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging.
          
JCL 1.1 is a maintenance release. A few new configuration features are
provided but
the focus has been on improving the discovery of logging implementations
and in error
handling whilst maintaining backwards compatibility. A number of
problems that have
troubled some users in past releases will hopefully be significantly
reduced or cured.
This is covered in more detail in the release notes
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/RELEASE-NOTES.txt).
          
Some changes have been made to the class-wise composition of the
distributed jars.
Some deprecated classes are no longer shipped. 
This is covered in more detail in the release notes
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/RELEASE-NOTES.txt.

The JCL documentation has also been improved. A Technology Guide
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/tech.html) offering an
introduction to
classloading issues and a Troubleshooting Guide
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/troubleshooting.html')
complement an
improved User Guide
(http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/logging/guide.html)

Binary and source distributions are available at
http://jakarta.apache.org/site/downloads/downloads_commons-logging.cgi.
The jars
are available from the usual repositories with <code>groupId:
commons-logging</code> and <code>artifactId: commons-logging</code>.
Please
remember to verify the signatures.
