This is release 1_0_2 of File Bridge Extension for Blackboard and the Xythos Digital Locker (or Xythos Web File Server) This release includes the full source and also binaries for the three project components:

• A File Bridge Extension building block, distributed as a zip file to be installed on the Blackboard server.
• A web application called XythosTicketAgent, distributed as a war file to be installed on the Xythos Digital Locker Server's Tomcat instance.
• A set of class files that handle custom authentication for Xythos. These files need to be installed in the xythos custom folder of the Xythos Digital Locker Server instance.

What is new in version 1.0.2

This is a bug fix release. This version fixes some bugs in version 1.0.1 that may have prevented proper installation of File Bridge's Xythos side. Issues fixed by this release are:

• Issue #5: release 1.0.1 introduced an incorrectly named war file for the Xythos-side web application (xythosticketagent)
• Issue #6: the product documentation in previous releases failed to correctly explain the configuration needs in terms of the password configuration file as it relates to the Xythos side web application (xythosticketagent)
