<B>0.7.0: Added Call API feature and included call API plugin in ECF SDK</B>
</P>
</TD>
<TD vAlign=top width="70%">
<p><br></p>
<p>A new experimental API for doing VOIP call setup has been introduced in plugin <b>org.eclipse.ecf.call</b>. This API is still under development,
and no provider implementations yet exist that implement the ICallContainer entry point adapter interface. The initial API is being released to
get community feedback to guide the further development of the API and the selection/ordering of provider implementations.</p>
<p>
See the javadocs for the
<a href="http://www.eclipse.org/ecf/org.eclipse.ecf.docs/api/org/eclipse/ecf/call/package-summary.html">org.eclipse.ecf.call</a>, and the
<a href="http://www.eclipse.org/ecf/org.eclipse.ecf.docs/api/org/eclipse/ecf/call/events/package-summary.html">org.eclipse.ecf.call.events</a>
<p>Please provide any thoughts/comments/feedback to either the ecf-dev@eclipse.org mailing list or the <b>eclipse.technology.ecf</b> newsgroup.

<B>0.7.1: Added org.eclipse.ecf.server plugin</B>
</P>
</TD>
<TD vAlign=top width="70%">
<p><br></p>
<p>Added new server plugin org.eclipse.ecf.server. This new plugin allows the running
of an ECF generic server within the <a href="http://www.eclipse.org/equinox/incubator/server/">Equinox Incubator under 'Embedding in Servlet Container'</a></p>.
When started by the Equinox platform (via console), the org.eclipse.ecf.server plugin reads the conf/server.xml
configuration file and starts the specified servers listening on the specified ports. Currently the ECF generic server at
ecftcp://ecf.eclipse.org:3282/server is run in this manner.</p>
