OpenDS 0.9.0-build001 is now available

• Revision 1835 -- Update the QuickSetup code to eliminate references to classes in OpenDS.jar, which could force QuickSetup to have to download that JAR file before displaying the setup box instead of being able to download it in the background.
• Revision 1837 -- Update the Windows batch files so that they will pause if an error occurs because no suitable JVM was found. This makes it possible for users to see the error message if the batch file was launched in a graphical mode (e.g., by double-clicking the icon in Windows Explorer).
• Revision 1839 -- Update the status panel so that it will resize itself whenever the user first authenticates. This will allow it to be big enough for the user to see all of its content.
• Revision 1841 -- Update the status panel so that it does not display replication monitoring information if replication is not enabled.
• Revision 1842 (Issue #1585) -- Update the server so that the audit logger is disabled by default. Also, change the format of the audit log messages so that they use standard LDIF change syntax and therefore can be easily replayed if necessary.
• Revision 1843 (Issue #1584) -- Update the DSML gateway so that it properly treats the request ID as optional rather than required. Also, update the DSML search processing so that it is more forgiving when parsing scope and deref policy strings.
• Revision 1850 (Issue #1597) -- Fix a typo in the name of the "pilotPerson" object class.
• Revision 1856 (Issue #612) -- Update the replication code so that it can replay operations in parallel using multiple threads while still preserving dependencies between operations (e.g., ensuring that a child is always added after its parent).
• Revision 1861 (Issue #1604) -- Update the status command so that it allows reading the user password from standard input.
• Revision 1868 (Issue #1507) -- Update the search processing code of the Berkeley DB JE backend so that any unindexed searches will be checked against the virtual attribute subsystem to see if any of the virtual attribute providers may be used to process the search.
• Revision 1873 (Issue #1502) -- Fix an issue with the override severity configuration for the error logger so that it works as described in the documentation. Also, rename the error and debug logging levels so that they use all lowercase characters and dashes rather than underscores.
• Revision 1875 (Issue #1430) -- Update the LDAP protocol tools so that they provide a "--version" argument to display information about the version of the tool.
• Revision 1889 (Issue #1283) -- Change the filename for backups created by the Berkeley DB JE backend so that they no longer contain a ".zip" extension. Even though some forms of the backups do use zip format, others (e.g., when encryption is enable) do not.
• Revision 1890 (Issues #1479, 1587, 1606) -- Update the access control processing code so that operational attributes do not get automatically included by clauses like (targetattr="*").
• Revision 1897 (Issue #1615) -- Fix a problem that could prevent the server from starting under certain network configurations.
• Revision 1907 -- Perform miscellaneous cleanup and bugfixes identified by the FindBugs utility.
• Revision 1908 (Issue #1614) -- Add a stub to preserve the previous HistoricalCsnOrderingMatchingRule in its original package to allow older databases to continue to be used with upgraded versions of the server.
• Revision 1918 (Issue #1622) -- Add global ACIs that allow anonymous read access to certain key operational attributes, like those in the root DSE and schema subentries, as well as server-wide attributes like entryDN, modifiersName, and modifyTimestamp.
