[OPEN-ILS-GENERAL] OpenSRF 2.5.0 now available

[Galen Charlton]

Hi,

We are pleased to announce the release of OpenSRF 2.5.0, a message
routing network that offers scalability and failover support for
individual services and entire servers with minimal development and
deployment overhead.

New features in OpenSRF 2.5.0 include:

* Support for message chunking, i.e., breaking up large OpenSRF
messages across multiple XMPP envelopes.
* The ability to detect the time zone of client applications and
include it in messages passed to the server.
Dispatch mode for method_lookup subrequests.
Example configuration files for using NGINX or HAProxy as a reverse
proxy for HTTP, HTTPS, and WebSockets traffic. This can be useful for
Evergreen systems that wish to use port 443 for both HTTPS and secure
WebSockets traffic.

OpenSRF includes various other improvements as detailed in the release notes:

OpenSRF 2.5.0 will be the minimum version of OpenSRF required for the
upcoming release of Evergreen 2.12.
