 <h1>DSDP Target Management 3.0 - New and Noteworthy</h1>
 <p>The emphasis on the TM 3.0 release has been API polish, cleanup
   and performance improvements,
   so there are not too many new features to mention. Still, here are
   some of the more noteworthy things you'll find in TM 3.0 (June 25, 2008)
   which is now available for <a href="http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/downloads/index.php" target="_top">download</a>.
   See the <a href="readme_tm_3.0.html">TM 3.0 release notes</a> as well
   as the <a href="http://download.eclipse.org/dsdp/tm/downloads/drops/R-3.0-200806202130/buildNotes.php">build notes</a>
   for details about API changes, bugs fixed and other changes.</p>
