[Dpp-announce] Release of Saros 9.8.21.r1660

[Christopher O. <chr...@fu...>]

The Saros Team is proud to announce the release of version 9.8.21.r1660!

In this release we focused on lots and lots of bug fixing and some
improvements to the network module. Now file transfers and activities
can be much larger and still be transmitted much faster. We also
added support for Eclipse PHP Development Tools (PDT). We now also
support using Saros via Google Talk!

Install and update from Eclipse: http://dpp.sf.net/update

Changelog:

[FEATURE] #2812129: Compress all data for higher performance
[FEATURE] Activities can skip the XMPP server and be sent via a direct
           P2P connection for higher performance
[FEATURE] Saros checks during an invitation whether the version of
           inviter is compatible with the version of the invitee.

This version introduces one known regression:

[REGRESSION] Copy, paste, undo, redo, etc. are possible for the
observer in Java and C++ files! Such changes are not send to the
other project participants and thus will cause inconsistencies.
