interface which enables an application to read configuration data from a

of sources.
+After the first beta release in June 2015 there has been some feedback from the
+community resulting in (minor) adaptations of the API. In most cases, the
+return values of methods have been changed to be more generic. There has also
+been a change in the support for logging. Therefore, this second beta release
+is provided to make these changes more "official".
+
+This release also includes some bug fixes. The bugs addressed here have partly
+existed already in the Configuration 1.0 code base; so these fixes are not all
+related to changes introduced in the 2.0 version.
+
+Below is a list of all changes in this version. Please refer to the clirr
+report at
http://commons.apache.org/proper/commons-configuration/clirr-report.html
+for information about changes which break binary compatibility.
+
+Changes:
+========
+o CONFIGURATION-614:
+ References to Commons Logging have been removed from the Configuration API.
+ It is still possible to influence logging by making use of the new
+ ConfigurationLogger abstraction.
+o CONFIGURATION-612:
+ The return type of ConfigurationBuilder.getConfiguration() was changed from
+ Configuration to ImmutableConfiguration because this is the base interface
+ for all configuration objects. Thanks to Jon Weygand.
+o CONFIGURATION-608:
+ Adapted the return type of
ReloadingFileBasedConfigurationBuilder.configure().
+
+Fixed Bugs:
+===========
+o CONFIGURATION-609:
+ Fixed a bug in PropertiesConfiguration related to the loading of include
+ files. The FileHandler used for this purpose was not fully initialized.
+o CONFIGURATION-605:
+ XMLConfiguration no longer drops keys when list delimiter characters occur
+ in element values.
+o CONFIGURATION-604:
+ Fixed a problem in the conversion of a flat configuration to a hierarchical
+ one that could cause the loss of properties in a combined configuration
+ constructed by an override combiner.
+
+Commons Configuration 2.0-beta2 requires Java 1.6 or higher.
