First real release. This probably should have been the 1.0 series. This release finished the issues and tasks that should have been completed before attempting to release the tool. It added a real xml parsing strategy to the ConfigurationFactory – commons digester. Also, test coverage is now at 88%, beating the goal of 80%. And finally, rather than just reporting that a cyclic dependency exists, the exact packages with the cyclic dependency are exposed. Soon, even the classes will be identified.

• issue-5 rewrite configurationhandler with new xml parser maintainability performance
• issue-6 report which packages were cyclic in dependency usability
