There haven't been any changes to the threading model added to cvs since the
last release, I only started the threading changes in late December so from
the dates in cvs you can verify this. I found a bug in the InputDataStream
while working on the threading changes. The bug was significant enough I
wanted to add it before the new threading model was finished. I just made a
mistake with EchoProfile.java and checked in the wrong version.

This has been the requirement since the first release of beepcore-java. The
new threading model I am working on will remove this requirement.
