Java Plugin Framework (JPF) 0.7 and JPF-Demo 0.5 released

New version of JPF is available for download. This release features significant API reworking to make the Framework more consistent and extensible.

The major changes are:
* Improved error reporting during JPF-demo application startup.
* Introduced PluginLocation interface that encapsulates info about plug-in manifest and plug-in data locations.
* Introduced class ObjectFactory that is used to get instances of main Framework objects (plug-in manager, registry and path resolver).
* The Framework API has been significantly restructured to make it much more flexible, consistent and extendible. To start using version 0.7 existing application should be modified. Most changes are related to moving classes between packages.
* Improved documentation tool - added printing of documentation notes for extension point parameters definitions. Thanks to Jeff Brown.
* Updated project documentation: added Java IDE configuration section.
