[ANNOUNCE] Tephra 0.6.0 Release

[Gary Helmling]

Hi all,

I am happy to announce the release of Tephra 0.6.0.

This is a new feature release of Tephra, adding support for Apache HBase 1.0. This release addresses the following issues:

* [TEPHRA-53] - Add HBase 1.0 compatibility module
* [TEPHRA-104] - Explicitly set timestamp on Tephra's delete family markers
* [TEPHRA-107] - Update Twill dependency to latest release
* [TEPHRA-108] - SnapshotCodecProvider can't load codec classes
* [TEPHRA-109] - Update twill dependency from SNAPSHOT to release
* [TEPHRA-110] - SnapshotCodecProvider does not properly clean configured class names
* [TEPHRA-111] - HBaseVersion class fails to recognize HBase 1.0.1.1
* [TEPHRA-112] - TransactionStateCache should log the size of the transaction snapshot when reloaded
* [TEPHRA-114] - TransactionServiceClient to log thrift exceptions stacktraces at debug level

The release artifacts are available in Maven Central, and a tarball of the full release build can be downloaded from github:
