JOnAS 5.1 M2 available

A new Milestone of the development branch JOnAS 5.1 is available: JOnAS 5.1.0 M2.

This release is available on the OW2 forge download page or with a JNLP installer.

JOnAS 5.1.0-M2 is distributed as a set of OSGi^TM bundles that are deployed on top of the Apache Felix gateway.
Some information can be found on the New and noteworthy and the Getting Started.

- OW2 CMI (2.1.1)
- OW2 Carol (3.0.2)
- Apache CXF (2.0.9)
- Apache Felix (1.4.0)
  - Note: due to a security issue in Apache Felix 1.4.0 (see the related issue here), the system security policies (java.policy) are partially supported on JOnAS 5.1.0-M2
- Apache Felix iPOJO (1.0.0)

New features:

Dump Threads Stack Trace
- New operations in the 'J2EE Server' MBean for getting a stack trace of the JVM threads. The output can be printed on the console, in the LOG file, or in a given file).
- New flex module in jonasAdmin console (under the monitoring node) for browsing the threads's stack trace
