    <p class="MsoNormal">Berkeley DB Java Edition 5.0.73 is a patch
      release consisting  of several improvements as well as a number of
      important bug fixes. We strongly recommend that users of the 5.0.x
      version upgrade to this release. These fixes include:<br>
    </p>
    <blockquote> </blockquote>
    <ul>
      <li>A JE/HA application may now explicitly transfer the master
        role, on demand, from the current master to one of a specified
        set of currently active replica nodes in the replication group.</li>
      <li> It is now possible to restore an entire replication group by
        restoring just one node from a backup. </li>
      <li> Added a new method that should be used for performing
        incremental backups: DbBackup.getLogFilesInSnapshot.</li>
      <li> The JE log cleaner now logs a SEVERE level message when the
        average cleaner backlog increases over time.</li>
      <li>The log cleaner will now delete files in the latter portion of
        the log, even when an HA application is not performing any write
        operations.</li>
    </ul>
