CloudBase-1.3 released

This is 1.3 release of CloudBase. CloudBase is a data warehouse system built on top of Hadoop's Map Reduce framework. Visit cloudbase.sourceforge.net for CloudBase documentation.

Release notes-

New Features:
* User Defined Types (UDTs)- User can create new Types and use them to create table of these types. UDTs are used when data is not structured. User creates a java class and defines the parsing logic in the constructor. Using UDT, one can query semi-structured/totally unstructued data using SQL
* Update index- Update index command has been added to update the index when new data is added to the table.
* CREATE JSON/XML tables- One can create tables on top of one's JSON/XML data and query them using SQL

Bug fixes:
* DROP table does not drop indexes
* Timestamp part is not shown on Squirrel for DateTime data type
* Range queries not working on Indexed VARCHAR column
* When inserting data to external database, the command would fail if autocommit is set to true for the database
* CloudBase ignores the case of the external table names.
* Create index do not check if index is already created on the column
* When submitting multiple queries, the previous queries fail

NOTE: One needs to use new driver version (cloudbasejdbc-1.3.jar) to connect to CloudBase-1.3
If you are using Squirrel, reregister your CloudBase JDBC Driver.
