[jetty-users] Release Jetty-7.4.0.v20110414

[Greg Wilkins <gregw@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Jetty@eclipse and Jetty-hightide@codehaus releases 7.4.0.v20110414
are now available via

  http://eclipse.org/jetty
  http://jetty.codehaus.org

This release contains many minor bug fixes, optimizations and
improvements over 7.3 as well as some new features and minor API
changes.

You can read about the new features at
http://webtide.intalio.com/2011/04/jetty-7-4-new-features.
Also support for websocket draft 6 and anticipation of draft 7 has
meant a refactor of the websocket serverside API. You can read about
an example of the latest websocket API at
http://webtide.intalio.com/2011/04/getting-started-with-websockets/

This is a moderately low risk upgrade from Jetty-7.3, so an upgrade is
recommended at the next convenient opportunity.
