Release Notes - Continuum - Version 1.2

-The Apache Continuum team is pleased to announce Apache Continuum 1.2 -

New in Continuum 1.2

m2 repositories (now it's possible to configure a local m2 repository per project group)
build output directory

Maven plugin groupId and artifactId change

Now the maven plugin has the new groupId:artifactId org.apache.continuum:continuum-maven-plugin

New SCMs support

Now continuum two new providers : git and accurev.
