Version 2.4
Summary of main changes
Known bugs
The Include Controller has some problems in non-GUI mode.
In particular, it can cause a NullPointerException if there are two include controllers with the same name.
Once Only controller behaves correctly under a Thread Group or Loop Controller,
but otherwise its behaviour is not consistent (or clearly specified).
The menu item Options / Choose Language does not change all the displayed text to the new language.
[The behaviour has improved, but language change is still not fully working]
To override the default local language fully, set the JMeter property "language" before starting JMeter.
Incompatible changes
The XPath Assertion and XPath Extractor elements no longer fetch external DTDs by default; this can be changed in the GUI.
