Re: [abc] abc release

Updated draft (fixed one grammatical error and shortened the insanely long
URL):

The abc team is pleased to announce the release of version 1.1.1 of abc.
This release serves two main goals. Firstly, it incorporates several
months' worth of bug fixes. Secondly, it provides a preview for interested
users of a significant amount of optimisation work that we have put into
the tracematches extension.

The tracematches optimisation work is detailed in abc technical report
abc-2006-1, available from http://abc.comlab.ox.ac.uk/pubslist. It introduces a
dependency on the Apache Commons Collections library, both at compile-time and
run-time. We intend to remove this dependency before the 1.2.0 release of abc,
planned for within the next month. This dependency only affects users of the
tracematches extension, not the base AspectJ compiler.

Details of the bugs fixed can be found at
http://abc.comlab.ox.ac.uk/cgi-bin/bugzilla/buglist.cgi?target_milestone=1.1.1

As usual, the release can be downloaded from http://aspectbench.org/download,
and a full changelog can be found below.
