2.0.0-M1

This is the first milestone release for Apache Isis 2.0

Apache Isis 2.0 upgrades the framework to require Java 8 and above, and along the way upgrades DataNucleus ORM to 5.1 and Wicket to 8.0.

Notable new features include support for meta-annotations (both Apache Isis annotations and DataNucleus).

Features deprecated in Apache Isis 1.x (most notably, domain services and annotations) have been removed. The most significant domain service removed is DomainObjectContainer.
