J2EP 1.0 release

J2EP is a reverse proxy running on a Servlet 2.3 compatible engine. A reverse proxy proxies traffic to servers and not, like a standard proxy, outgoing traffic. A reverse proxy can be used when you want to give access to your internal server but not open the firewall for direct connections. Then the client can connect to the proxy and the proxy will connect to the server.

J2EP also adds some nice features like load balancing and rewriting of links, it is also designed to be very easy to extend. You can browse the manual for some more information at http://j2ep.sourceforge.net/docs/install.html

News in the 1.0 release aren't that many but this marks that the proxy should now be ready for use in a regular server environment without any troubles. The manual has been worked on and should be a easy guide to a quick install and configuration.
