Jersey 2.6 has been released

Most immediate reason for me to upgrade is that they resolved the issue with the Guava dependency. This means I can easily use Jersey, along with the latest version of Guava.

How to write a good release announcement: Put the most prominent change in the announcement title.

How to write a release announcement that will be ignored: Write a title that only says something new was released.

I only vaguely understand what Jersey is, depite (apparently) having used it. Here's a couple of links that may help readers understand what it is:

The Jersey versions 2 and above are examples of turning a successful user friendly project into an application server specific JAX-RS framework(?). The versions prior to 2 allowed clean integration with many popular frameworks (spring / guice) etc. Now they have this thing called bridge which provides abstraction over abstraction over abstraction.

Paul Sandoz why did you leave man ?

So...there's a New Jersey?

Sorry, I had to. :/
