Release 6.1.12

[Greg Wilkins-5]

Release Jetty 6.1.12 is now available via http://jetty.mortbay.org

The 5 months since the last stable release has been a little longer
than we had intended, but the release contains lots of improvements,
many fixes and a few good optimizations.

New features include:

  + Cometd now uses a stable release of Dojo and a mvn release of cometd API
  + Improved Terracotta clustering support
  + Integrated with Gigaspaces for grid computing.
  + Async HttpClient now supports proxies, SSL and authentication

There are no major bug fixes, but enough important ones and
optimizations to justify an upgrade as soon as convenient.

Thanks for all the contributions, feedback and assistance from
the Jetty community.
