CometD 2.4.0.RC3 Released
Simone Bordet
CometD 2.4.0.RC3 has been released and should be available from
Central in minutes.
Meanwhile, you can download it here: http://download.cometd.org/
This release bring a number of improvements and stability fixes, and
will probably be the last RC now that also Jetty is approaching the
7.6.0 final release.
The major heads up for this release is that Jetty 7.6.0.RC5 is much
more stable, especially with respect to SSL, and this means that
CometD can now be used much more reliably also over SSL, for both HTTP
and WebSocket.
There have been a number of small improvements to Oort too, to add
listeners in both Oort (to listen for cloud events - other comets
joining and leaving the cloud) and Seti (to listen for presence events
- other users associating to a Seti instance).
The JavaScript WebSocket transport has been much improved to cope with
network failures in a much more reliable way, and the server has
become more reliable too (by not leaking sessions when WebSocket
connections are abruptly closed).

Finally, no matter how good the architecture and design are,
to deliver bug-free software with optimal performance and reliability,
the implementation technique must be flawless. Victoria Livschitz
