JRuby 1.7.10 is our tenth update release since JRuby 1.7.0. The primary
goal of 1.7 point releases is to fill out any missing compatibility
issues
with Ruby 1.9.3. The community participation lately has been great. Keep
reporting issues and sending pull requests.

Changes of note:

- 22 issues fixed
- Windows require_relative regression fixed.
- Accidental SNAPSHOT dependency fixed
- A couple of Marshalling bugs involving encoding fixed.
