[ANN] Scala 2.7.1.RC1

We are pleased do announce version 2.7.1.RC1 of the Scala
distribution. 2.7.1 will be mainly a bug fix release.

The reason this new release comes out only few weeks after
2.7.0 is a bug in XML parsing that was introduced between
2.7.0-RC3 and 2.7.0-final. This bug caused a high demand
for a rapid resolution.
