2.8.0.CR1 released

I just released 2.8.0.CR1, it can be downloaded from SourceForge (binary and source).

This version is pretty stable, and I expect a GA soon. The only open issues are currently a few IPv6 related issues and an issue which fixes spurious merges.

The release notes are here.

Enjoy,

2.6.12.GA released

Just uploaded to SourceForge, the JIRA issues are at https://jira.jboss.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&pid=10053&fixfor=12313820.

In a nutshell, 2.6.12 contains only 4 issues:

• GossipRouter consumed 40% CPU without doing anything: fixed
• S3_PING is a new file-basedx discovery protocol for running JGroups on EC2 / S3
• There was a memory leak in the GMS protocol on high member churn (high rate of joins and leaves)
• FLUSH could lock up the entire cluster when the initial flush phase ran into a timeout. Thanks to Rado and Brian for discovering this bug by adding all weird combination of failure scenarios to their merciless tests... :-) And kudos to Vladimir for investigating the (60MB !) logs, finding the offending code and fixing it, all within 60 minutes !
  

2.6.12.GA can be downloaded from SourceForge in binary and source versions.

Enjoy,
