Archiva 1.4-M1 released

The Apache Archiva 1.4-M1 has been released.
Some nice features added:

• It is now possible to create a staging repository for any managed repository and later merge the results.


• You can now use REST services to control Archiva or search for artifacts. See REST Services for more information.


• Database storage for repository metadata has been replaced with a JCR repository based on Apache Jackrabbit by default (other options such as a flat-file storage may be made available in the future).


• The search interface provide now the capability to search on OSGI metadata (based on the update of the Apache Maven Indexer library).


• You can now download Maven index content from remote repositories to include artifacts which are not present locally in your search results
