+The Maven team is pleased to announce the JBoss plugin 1.3 release!
+
+http://maven.apache.org/reference/plugins/jboss
+
+The Maven JBoss plugin is a plugin containing goals useful for creating
+a JBoss server configuration and deploying J2EE modules in it.
+
+Changes in this version include (last changes first):
+
+o Fixes MAVEN-570. Make the JBoss plugin work on unix (JBoss scripts have 
+  a sh extension which we were missing).
+
+Note that this plugin has been tested with Maven 1.0 rc1. Using it with
+another version of Maven is at your own risks! :-)
+
+You can download the JBoss Maven plugin here:
+http://www.ibiblio.org/maven/maven/jars/maven-jboss-plugin-1.3.jar
+
+Have fun!
