Project Darkstar v0.9.11 Now Available
The Project Darkstar
development team is pleased to announce the availability of the Project
Darkstar v0.9.11 distribution release. This release introduces a new
extension system that eases building, distributing, and using custom
components designed to extend the core functionality of the Project
Darkstar Server. The new system establishes a standardized extension
format that supports automatically deploying and enabling custom
services, authenticators, and other pluggable components in the core.
Other highlights of the release include the new shouldContinue() method
on the TaskManager API to assist in breaking down work into smaller
task units. Changelog summaries from each distribution component follow
below.
