- FIX: dependencies order not taken into account during resolve
- FIX: evicting modules also evict confs
- FIX: NPE during resolve when a dependency ivy file has no publication date
- FIX: check nullity of artifact download reports

   version 0.8 - 2005-03-30
===========================
- added validate attribute on resolve, retrieve and publish, which allows to disable ivy file validation
  against ivy.xsd (useful to parse future compatible ivy files)
- ant properties are now available in ivyconf file
- unified default properties in ivyconf, with better independance from url or file
- added ext on artifacts: this enable to distinguish artifact extension from artifact
  type, util in cases where it differs (example: 'src' type with 'zip' extension, 'ivy' type with 'xml' extension, ...)
- added publish artifacts feature, which enable to publish declared artifacts of a module to a repository
  described by a dependency resolver. It currently works only with filesystem resolver.
- url resolver now handles latest with file urls and http ones (tested only with apache server)
- added latest strategy concept: the way to determine which artifact is the latest
  is now configurable on resolvers handling latest. 
- added parameter on chain resolver to say if it should return first found or
  try to find the latest among all if asked
- a module can now publish no artifact, useful for virtual modules consisting only
  of integration of other modules
- added conflict management at resolve time: during resolve, modules in conflict can be evicted
  and thus not downloaded
- added ivyrep resolver, using ivyrep to find ivy files, and ibiblio for artifacts
- use ivyrep instead of ibiblio as default resolver
- added more info in ivy files (description, homepage, ivy authors, license, public repository, ...)
- now cache layout is configurable, using cacheIvyPattern and cacheArtifactPattern
  attributes on conf element in ivyconf.xml
- changed default cache layout: artifacts are separated by type
- added cachepath task, which enables to build an ant path of artifacts in cache required for a conf

   version 0.7 - 2005-03-11
===========================
- added latest sub revision feature: you can now select the latest sub revision of a module
  using a +. For instance, "1.0+" selects the latest revision starting with 1.0. (thanks to jonas for the idea)
- haltonfailure now defaults to true (as suggested by Jeroen)
- shorter info lines to better view important info (as suggested by Jeroen)
- retrieve now checks if files are up to date before copying them from cache. This feature
  can be disabled using the checkUpToDate attribute in ivy configuration file.
- do not download dependencies when not necessary during publication (as suggested by Daniele)
- bug fix: better handling of publish without recursive delivery

   version 0.6.1 - 2005-02-11
=============================
- bug fix: conf extends problem with publications
- bug fix: typedef badly handled in ivyconf.xml
- bug fix: default properties loading in ivy configure loaded using task classloader

   version 0.6 - 2005-02-03
===========================
+ functional
- added haltonfailure attribute on resolve and retrieve task, so that build can be halt when 
  resolve or retrieve fails
- added dependency artifacts filtering feature, enabling to work better with ibiblio
- ibiblio resolver can now be configured to use any maven like repository, with root and pattern attributes
- added download progression info on resolve
- default cache is now in user home (.ivy-cache in user home), so that cache is shared
  by default for all projects of the same user
- added public access to method getDependencies(...) in Ivy, which resolve dependencies without
  downloading artifacts
- added DualResolver, which allows to have ivy files in one place and artifacts in another one

+ non functional
- added some unit tests
- deep review of ivy file reference documentation

+ bugs and refactoring
- bug fix: SimpleURLResolver not handling the case when there is no ivy file
- refactoring: URLResolver renamed to AbstractURLResolver
- refactoring: SimpleURLResolver renamed to URLResolver

   version 0.5.1 - 2005-01-16
=============================
- Bug Fix: NPE in publish task when no delivery.list.file is provided
- documentation update

   version 0.5 - 2005-01-12
