Greetings,

I just wanted to notify you this release includes changes that  
(hopefully) improves your checkers.  Namely it has the following two  
improvements:

- When querying the supertype of a declared type, only user-specified  
annotations in the extends and implements clauses are added.  Now it's  
AnnotatedTypeFactory.postDirectSuperType adds the implicit annotations  
to supertypes.  You may override postDirectSupertype to change this  
behavior.

- AnnotationBuilder.build().toString() returns the same representation  
as the javac generated AnnotationMirror.toString().

Please notify the list if you have any more questions.  Needless to  
say, thanks for requests to improve the framework!

Regards,
Mahmood
