[SNMP4J] SNMP4J 1.6beta1 & SNMP4J-Agent-1.0-alpha2 Released

[Frank Fock]

SNMP4J v1.6beta1 and the next alpha release of SNMP4J-Agent API
have been released and can be downloaded from
http://www.snmp4j.org

The new SNMP4J version adds localized USM user support and several
small enhancements and bug fixes.
The new SNMP4J-Agent alpha release is primarily a bug-fix roll-up release.

The final 1.6 release is scheduled for end of September 2005 and at the same
time, the first beta for SNMP4J-Agent is to be released. The SNMP4J-Agent
beta will then provide a nearly 100% stable interface until the final 
1.0 release.
