Thanks for the update.

We have just updated our PE version and now we are getting the text in the start up server console:

Looks like the ZK guys have uploaded a "new" zip file which removes the above warning :)

Thanks for the release of these new features in 5.0.5.

I have one question tho... for a minor release why is there a HUGE bloat in dependencies now? My application .war file grew another 18MB!

Looking at the dependencies I see items such as Apache Ant (and launcher!), JRuby and Groovy being added. For such a minor revision update why are all these items added? If they aren't directly used they should be marked as optional in the .pom file.

@svenasse,

Yes, we already fixed that via the optional property in ZK 5.0.6-FL version.
