Hello Everybody,

Due to some unknown reasons the Maven artifacts for RHQ 4.12 were not published on the release date. The problem has been fixed and the artifacts are now released to JBoss Nexus Releases repository.

JBoss Nexus: http://repository.jboss.org/nexus/content/repositories/releases/org/rhq/

Please feel free to contact me if you need help or see any problems with Maven artifacts.

Thank you, Stefan

It is my pleasure to announce the release of RHQ 4.12. Notable changes are:

* The UI has been updated to follow the PatternFly look and feel (
http://www.patternfly.org ). This is not totally complete, please give
us your feedback!
* Several new Bundle features:


    * Ant bundles now support the rhq:handover that can pass content to
    the plugin for processing, such as native script execution.
    * Ant bundles can now use properties defined using property or
    rhq:property tags in their recipes.
    * Ant Bundle rhq:url-archive and rhq:archive tasks now support the
    destinationDir attribute for exploded archives.
* The AS7/EAP plugin now supports Versioned Deployments.

    * For example, when deploying myapp-1.0.0.war RHQ now gives you
    resource myapp.war with version 1.0.0. In this way history is not
    lost when updating the version, the resource remains the same and
    only the version changes.
* Plugin writers can now report MISSING the availability type in their
getAvailability() implementations.

    * Used when the underlying resource is detected as physically
    removed, this can result in automatic uninventory or ignore of the
    resource.
* An important effort has been made to harden the Postgres plugin.     *
The RHQ Storage Node component continues to mature.
* The RHQ Server now runs on top of EAP 6.3.alpha (previously it ran on
EAP 6.1.Alpha).
