Release 1.0
Qi4j SDK
We are working towards a useful SDK for Qi4j development, suitable for non-Maven users. This work has not been highest on the list and we are generally lagging in the release of the SDK in comparison to the Maven artifact releases. We strive to change this in the future.

Maven Artifacts
Due to a server mishap at OPS4J community, Maven artifacts for 1.0 was lost. We will look into re-building these in the near future. If possible, use version 1.1 instead.

[QI-216] - NamedEntityFinder that parses SparQL text, provided to it at bootstrap
Improvement
[QI-57] - Use RDF/XML as format for RESTful Access API.
[QI-194] - Breaking apart the project into smaller release artifacts.
[QI-199] - @Uses should do instance reuse on automatic creation
[QI-206] - Refactor Query API to not require UoW for creating a query builder
[QI-210] - Remove the Event-based UnitOfWork & EntityStore SPIs.
[QI-212] - Removal of using hashes to identified Entity Types.

Bug
[QI-44] - [CompositeInputStream] and [CompositeOutputStream] do not handle objects of type service, and structure properly
[QI-128] - Neo4j entity store does not properly persist Associations to the same entity
[QI-137] - Exception thrown when deserializing immutable property + constraints.
[QI-138] - EntityStore should store composite references as state
[QI-146] - AppliesTo on Mixin implementation methods does not work.
[QI-181] - Serialization of values doesn't do Type->Composite lookup/replacement.
[QI-195] - SPI API need to be updated to reflect the change on the core
[QI-204] - JDBM store doesn't retain data across JVM invocations.
[QI-205] - Indexing is producing incorrect results
[QI-218] - non-Optional not respected in UnitOfWork.newEntity()
[QI-219] - ValueComposite properties in Entity creation doesn't work.
[QI-220] - On ServiceComposite you can do metaInfo(type) whereas on ServiceReference you can get the MetaInfo object itself through metaInfo(). These should be aligned, either way.
[QI-221] - Check nested UnitOfWork code so that it works properly.
[QI-222] - Remove refresh() from UoW. It's too weird.
[QI-223] - ServiceComposites needs additional types mapped
