Subject: [ANNOUNCE] Apache LDAP API 1.0.0-M3 has been released !
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8; format=flowed
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

The Apache Directory team is proud to announce the availability of the 
1.0.0-M3 version of the Apache Directory LDAP API.

The Apache LDAP client API is an ongoingeffort to provide an enhanced 
LDAP API, as a replacement for JNDI and the existing LDAP API (jLdap and 
Mozilla LDAP API).

This is a schema aware API, with some convenient ways to access a LDAP 
server. This API is not only targetting the Apache Directory Server, but 
should work pristine with any LDAP server.

It's also an extensible API : new Controls, schema elements and network 
layer could be added or used in the near future. *It includes an OSGi 
based plugin framework for extending the API.*

This is the first official milestone (two others have already been 
released but not announced), we will release few more milestone versions 
before a release candidate,  but the current version has already been 
validated in Directory Studio and in the Apache Directory Server. Its 
documentation is currently under construction.

Feel free to experiment, we highly appreciate your feedback !
