Dear freebXML Registry community members,<br>
<br>
We have just committed changes today that provide the following
improvements to Email Notifications of registry events:<br>
<br>
-Registry now deliver Email Notifications of registry events in form of
a formatted HTML page<br>
The formatting is done by an XSLT Style sheet that is stored as a
repository item in a freshly build minDB or demoDB.<br>
<br>
-Registry email notifications can now be sent via secure smtp protocol
and use various authentication methods.<br>
<br>
*Acknowledgments*<br>
<br>
This feature has been a team effort with:<br>
<ul>
  <li>Andrzej Taramina providing the system wide default style sheet at
misc/samples/minDB/notificationToHTML.xsl</li>
  <li>Diego Ballve providing the code to transform the Notification
using Andrzej's style sheet</li>
  <li>Me doing the assembly work</li>
  <li>Diego doing the patch review and additional testing<br>
  </li>
</ul>
*Impact on Existing Deployments*<br>
<ul>
  <li>The minDB now loads the misc/samples/minDB/notificationToHTML.xsl
during the loadConfig target.<br>
You MUST either rebuild your database (typically using "createDemoDB"
ant target), or<br>
you MUST run the "loadConfig" ant target to only reload the one file
that has changes in this patch.<br>
  </li>
  <li>There have been some small changes to build.properties.template
which require you to sync your build.properties file in root omar dir
to be synced with the latest version of this file. </li>
  <ul>
    <li>This file now sets new prop omar.registry.baseurl which is used
to set same name prop in conf/omar.properties by build.xml</li>
    <li>No longer allows setting of omar.url.http and omar.url.soap as
these MUST be relative to omar.registry.baseurl</li>
  </ul>
  <li>There have been significant changes to conf/omar.properties for
this feature. Most of the changes are new properties that allow use
ofauthenticated sessions via secure smtp protocol with an smtp server.
In a couple of cases existing property names have been changed to make
them consistent with the new "*.smtp.*" properties.<br>
  </li>
</ul>
<br>
Please let us know if you have any questions, comments or suggestions.
Thanks.<br>
