I am pleased to announce that Soot version 2.4.0 is now available at:
http://www.sable.mcgill.ca/soot/

This release contains the following additions and improvements:

1. Hossein Sadat-Mohtasham’s implementation of program dependency graphs
2. Support for creating sound call graphs even for programs that use reflection, custom class loaders and runtime-generated classes. For this purpose, Soot uses TamiFlex to create a runtime log file that contains information about how reflection is being used. Spark then uses the log file during call-graph and points-to graph construction. See this tutorial for details.

Also we incorporated fixes to numerous bugs. Thanks for reporting bugs and/or providing fixes! See http://www.sable.mcgill.ca/soot/CHANGES for details.

As of version 2.2.0 the Soot bugzilla is available at: http://svn.sable.mcgill.ca/bugzilla/. We encourage you to add any Soot bugs there.
