Whats New:
----------

The main features of this release are

  o  Minor bug fixes for

    * session handling for Servlet Spec 2.4
    * mail processing when unassigning a bug


Changes in this Release:
------------------------

  Note:  All bugs have been moved from the Ozibug module to the new 
         Ozibug 2.3.4 module.  Bugs Ids refer to the id in the new module 
         with the old ids displayed in brackets for reference purposes.


  PR#1   Incorrect session handling on Tomcat 5.5  (Ozibug/PR#332)

         When running under Tomcat 5.5 (with Java 1.5) the following message is
         logged on logout, resulting in the user not being removed from the 
         SessionManager cache.

           SessionListener.valueUnbound: deleteSession(null) failed, 
           java.lang.IllegalStateException: getId: Session already invalidated

         Created session listener with the id of session it listens to which 
         avoids invalid session errors in later versions of Tomcat. 

  PR#2   Mail processing fails on unassigning a bug  (Ozibug/PR#334)

         When the assignee is removed from a bug, mail processing fails and 
         even the creator does not receive a message.

         Corrected handling of an empty assignee field.

  
  PR#XX  A number of additional minor issues with no direct
         impact on functionality have also been addressed.


Outstanding issues:
-------------------

  PR#XXX  None as of this release.


Known limitations:
------------------

  PR#147  Clustered environment not supported
          A single Ozibug data repository cannot be used by multiple Ozibug 
          applications.  A clustered environment whereby each node of the 
          cluster runs its own servlet container but uses a single Ozibug data 
          repository, is therefore not currently supported.


How to contact us:
------------------

We have created an email alias that will send all your questions and
comments to the Ozibug team.  We cannot guarantee that we will respond
to all of your email, but we do promise to read them.
