                      1.0 caGrid Introduction
================================================================

    This document contains the release notes for the caGrid 1.4
    release.  

    caGrid 1.4 is a point release of the caGrid 1.x stream.  It
    is generally backwards compatible with the service
    interfaces of caGrid 1.0, 1.1, 1.2, and 1.3 That is, services 
    and applications developed against the caGrid 1.0 - 1.3
    release, will continue to function against caGrid 1.4
    versions of those services (including the production grid).
    More details on backwards compatibility can be found here:
    http://cagrid.org/display/caGrid14/Deprecation%20Plan

    This release of caGrid supports caBIG compatibility level gold.

Specific highlighted improvements in caGrid 1.4 include:
* Continuous Integration:
  caGrid 1.4 enhances support for the latest releases (versions 4.2 and 4.3) of the caCORE 
  Software Development Kit (SDK) and Common Security Module (CSM).
* Data Services:
  Data services in caGrid 1.4 now support CQL 2, the successor query language to CQL.  CQL 2 adds numerous
  features frequently requested by the community, including associated object retrieval.  Data services also
  provide optional support for the use of caGrid Transfer to retrieve results, which can significantly
  reduce the overhead of moving large results from the server to the client.
* Introduce Toolkit
  Introduce includes service upgraders, allowing service developers to easily update to and leverage caGrid 1.4.
* Identifiers
  An all new system and grid services have been created for caGrid 1.4 which enable an identifiers framework
  for uniquely identifying instances of data on caGrid. (http://cagrid.org/display/identifiers/Home)
