Xenon 1.0.0

This is the first stable release of Xenon, version 1.0.0.

What's there:

The Xenon programming interface is stable and completely documented. User documentation, examples, and Javadoc are available for the public API of Xenon.

This version of Xenon contains adaptors for local, SSH, Grid Engine and Slurm that should be fully functional.

The library has been tested extensively under Linux, Windows 7 and OSX.

What's missing:

There is no adaptor writing documentation at the moment, nor is the Javadoc complete for the internals methods of the adaptor implementations.

The SSH adaptor does not support SSH agent or SSH agent forwarding yet.

We can always use more adaptors, e.g, for FTP, CIFS, GridFTP, etc.

We can always use more interfaces, e.g. for bandwidth-on-demand or clouds.

Whatever happened to Octopus ?

Xenon was previously called Octopus. We changed its name to fit into the NLeSC naming scheme, which has an elements theme.
