[scala] [ANN] Scala 2.7.1.final

[Lukas Rytz]

We are pleased to announce version 2.7.1.final of the
Scala distribution.

Scala 2.7.1 is mainly a bug fix release. It includes
a highly demanded fix for a bug in XML parsing that was
introduced in the previous version. Other than that,
the contractiveness requirement for implicit methods was
removed, and the type scala.Either was added to the
standard library.
