 Jiplet 0.0.2a released

Major enhancement and bug fix release

July 14, 2005,
Raleigh, NC.

We are please to release Jiplet Container 0.0.2a. Jiplet is short for Java SIP Servlet. The Jiplet Container is an open-source development and runtime environment for server-side SIP applications. It is very similar to a Java servlet container in concept. A Java servlet is a Java class that handles HTTP messages from web browsers. Similarly, a jiplet is a Java class that handles SIP messages from SIP user agents - SIP phones and other SIP servers. A servlet container like the Apache Tomcat can host one or more web applications (contexts), each consisting of one or more servlets. Similarly, a jiplet container like the one we offer can host one or more SIP applications (contexts), each consisting of one or more jiplets.  
 
Jiplet Container r0.0.2a adds a number of new features as well as fixes many known issues and limitations. This is still a preview alpha release. That is, we are still adding new features but the release is made available to users who want to study the features. The API is still undergoing changes. 
 
The new features include: 
(1) Container-managed authentication and authorization: Allows jiplet applications to specify security-constraints. The container handles security (authentication and authorization) on behalf of the application based on SIP specifications. 
(2) A new JMX implementation has been put in place that supports the "remote" API. 
(3) A number of changes have been made to the reference application. 
(4) The class-loader architecture for the standalone jiplet container has been changed. Any classes and jar files placed under the common directory under the home directory is now loaded automatically. This feature allows users to easily replace the SIP stack, plugin authentication databases, etc. 
(5) Many bugs have been fixed. 
(6) Many changes to the documentation have been made.
