******************************* * LibRepository 0.2.0 * ******************************* 30 May 2008 1. INTRODUCTION --------------- LibRepository provides a simple abstraction layer to access bulk content that is organized in a hierarchical layer. Unlike the JSR-000170, this library does not aim to solve all problems associated with content storages. The main purpose of LibRepository is to give users an abstract view over an filesystem like structure so that content generator and content consumer do no longer have to make assumptions about where to store the generated content. The repositories described here should not be used to store other things than BLOBs.

SUPPORT ---------- Free support is available via the Pentaho Reporting forum, follow the link from the LibRepository home page. Please note that questions are answered by volunteers, so there is no guaranteed response time or level of service. Please avoid e-mailing the developers directly for support questions. If you post a message in the forum, then everyone can see the question, and everyone can see the answer. 3.
