I'm exicted to release Vibe protocol 3.0.0-Alpha4, Vibe JavaScript Client 3.0.0-Alpha4 and Vibe Java Server 3.0.0-Alpha6 after a long time. This release focuses on reorganization of transport.

• Transport is reorganized into ws, stream and longpoll. vibe-protocol#38, vibe-java-server#61, vibe-javascript-client#32
• Socket has no identifier so that related methods are removed. vibe-protocol#39
• Connection sharing feature is dropped. vibe-javascript-client#34
• Socket.close and Sentence.close return void. vibe-java-server#62
• stream transport is fixed in Safari 5 and 6. vibe-javascript-client#35

In next phase, we will focus on making transport public as a layer of the protocol. Then, you will be able to customize existing transports and write your own transports e.g. TCP transport. If you have any feedback, please let us know and we really appreciate them.

I'm happy to announce Vibe Java Platform 3.0.0-Alpha6. The main focus of this release is supporting Grizzly 2 platform.

• Grizzly 2 platform is now supported. Try out the working example. vibe-java-platform#29
• VibeRequestHandler and VibeWebSocketHandler are added as transformer. vibe-java-platform#31
• Transformers like VibeServlet and VibeServerEndPoint are changed into abstract classes. vibe-java-platform#32
• netty-all dependency is changed to netty-codec-http. vibe-java-platform#30

In next phase, we will focus on Reorganize transport to process further transport related features. If you have any feedback or suggestions, please let us know and we appreciate them as always.

I'm happy to announce Vibe Java Platform 3.0.0-Alpha5. The main focus of this release is supporting JAX-RS 2 platform and providing extended ways and improvements to handle HTTP message body.

• JAX-RS 2 platform is now supported as a platform on platform. Try out the working example.
• Blocking reading operation of Servlet 3.0 and Play 2 now emulates non-blocking mode by spawning a thread. vibe-java-platform#25
• It's allowed to force reading HTTP request body as text or binary. vibe-java-platform#24
• When charset is not given to HTTP exchange, ISO-8859-1 is used by default. vibe-java-platform#22

In next phase, we will provide a bridge for Grizzly 2. Then, you will be able to run Vibe on most Java platform of the upper rank of Web Framework Benchmarks by TechEmpower. If you have any feedback or suggestions, please let us know and we really appreciate them as always.

It is my pleasure to announce Vibe Java Platform 3.0.0-Alpha4 and Vibe Java Server 3.0.0-Alpha5. The main focus of this release is supporting Netty 4 platform and rewriting bridge helpers.
