In Relation To

I am happy to announce that last week we officially kicked off the beta stream for AS7. This will be a very rapid biweekly release schedule up until we hit CR. So expect to see a lot coming from us very quickly.

Moving from Alpha1 to Beta1, I am happy to announce the release of Hibernate Search 3.4.0.Beta1. The release includes an upgrade to Hibernate Core 3.6.2 and the usual bug fixes (see Jira release notes for all the gory details).

We just recently released new JBossAS7.0.0.Beta1 (great work guys!):

We had an intense two weeks in the Hibernate Search team (well, especially Hardy) while designing the Faceting API. Hardy worked hard one the implementation (not a trivial piece of code in and of itself) but the harder part was the iterative process we did to refine the API:

The short answer is: Yes.

I pleased to say that I just submitted the JSR proposal for CDI 1.1 (full text[1] is attached). In general, we are pretty happy with CDI 1.0, so this release focuses on a small number of much requested features, along with bug fixes and clarifications.

The Hibernate team is pleased to announce the release of Hibernate Core 4.0.0.Alpha1. Pieces of changes in this release have been in the work for a long time, so even though it is an alpha the changes should all be really really well vetted and tested.

This morning I pushed live the github repository for Hibernate Tools (core).
