New Features in v2.1

...

Source Tree Reorganization and Cleanup

The In v2.1, the DCDT source tree was reorganized to conform to industry standards and best practices, with top-level folders branchestags, and trunk, each used for its unique respective purpose (i.e., maintenance branches, milestone tags, and active "next release" development). Additionally, a tag was retroactively created for the previous version of the DCDT tool. Finally, binary build-generated artifacts (e.g., jar files), which were previously being stored in the source repository without need, but causing performance and storage inefficiencies, have all been removed.

Subsequent releases of the Tool, the source tree has been converted to Mercurial. The 2.1.2-RELEASE tag is available from Google Code.
