h2. New and Noteworthy

Welcome to the 2.9.0 release which approx XXX issues resolved (new features, improvements and bug fixes such as...)

* [AHC], [HTTP], [HTTP4], [Jetty], [Servlet] now supports multi valued HTTP headers.
* Lookup bean with expected type in [Registry] now reports better exception message with actual and expected type in case of a caused {{ClassCastException}}
* [Type Converter] discovery has been improved to be faster and better support different runtimes. Camel now prefers to load @Converter classes using the FQN class name instead of package scanning. Package scanning is a costly procedure and doesnt work out of the box in all runtimes, and using [Pluggable Class Resolvers] is needed to make that work.

* Not all [Examples] have ANT build.xml files to run the example using ANT.
* The project cannot fully build the site using Maven (eg running {{"mvn site"}}. There is no plan to make this work as the project do not use the maven site.

h2. Important changes to consider when upgrading

* End users with custom components that has [Type Converter]s should consider migrating to use the FQN in the {{META-INF/services/org/apache/camel/TypeConverter}} file. See more details at [Type Converter].
