JGroups 3.2.0.Final released

I've released JGroups 3.2.0.Final, the most important features are:
  • RELAY2 
  • Internationalized logging
    •  The most important user-facing warnings and error messages (e.g. configuration errors) have been internationalized.
    • Error/warning translations are in jg-messages.properties. If someone wants to translate these into a different language, e.g. French, just copy jg-messages.properties into jg-messages_fr.properties and translate the messages. The new file now only needs to be added to the classpath, no changes to JGroups !
  • Reduction of error/warn messages
    • Sometimes there are a lot of recurring warnings or error messages, e.g. warnings about messages received from different clusters, or warnings about messages from members with different JGroups versions.
    • These can now be suppressed for a certain time, e.g. we can configure that there's only *one* warning every 60 seconds about messages from different clusters.
    • [https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JGRP-1518]

A full list of features and bug fixes is here.

The manual can be found at http://www.jgroups.org/manual-3.x/html/index.html.

Questions and feedback as usual on the mailing lists.

Enjoy !
