ANN: 4Suite 1.0a3

[Uche Ogbuji]

Today we release 1.0 alpha 3, now available from Sourceforge and
ftp.4suite.org.  1.0a3 replaces the last release, 1.0a2, which had some
files missing, and has been withdrawn.

4Suite is a comprehensive platform for XML and RDF processing, with base
libraries and a server framework.  It is implemented in Python and C,
and provides Python and XSLT APIs, Web and command line interfaces.

IMPORTANT alpha release notes
--

If you have built a 4Suite repository using an older version of 4Suite,
you will probably have to make adjustments for this new release.  If you
used 0.12.0a3, or a more recent version, then it should suffice to
recompile all stylesheets for each repository instance:

4ss_manager recompile

In any case, see the following document for more details:

There has been some progress with builds on Mac OS X in this release.
