additionally, you can solicit the maven user list to turn on their
build to pick up the maven-compile-plugin and maven-surefire-plugin
snapshots to get feedback early. Then stage them.
I will be happy to do that.
Yes, about 5 people will do that. No one tries anything until we
release it the vast majority of the time, unfortunately. We just have
to be proactive about it. If we tried new plugins on the grid we'll
likely find most of the problems.

Btw, I have been using an internal cut of post surefire 2.4.3 for
quite sometime now.

Maybe you and Benjamin can sort out a way to stage the plugin and
run all
the projects on the grid to see if it's all good. A similar
strategy could
be employed for the surefire plugin. The best we can do is run as
many
projects as we can with these new plugins to make sure they work in
the wild
as we've seen in the past that sometimes the releases are not so
stellar.
I'm sure we could find a clean place to inject an override for the
default
version of the compiler plugin in 3.x and then use that version of
Maven to
build as many on the grid as we can. Can't think of a better way to
test a
core plugin to make sure we don't hose anyone.

Now that we have maven-toolchains-plugin released, what is blocking
rolling a release of maven-compiler-plugin?
Toolchains support has been integrated since r649442. All the
integration tests (3 of them) are passing. I am not seeing any
issues
in JIRA which are regressions (i.e. releasing now would probably not
make things worse)
There are currently 3 critical issues in JIRA:
MCOMPILER-98 is an issue for plexus-compiler
MCOMPILER-64 is just a higher memory requirement for large
compiles with
jdk6u4+
MCOMPILER-43 looks to be a plexus-compiler-eclipse issue
If all that is somebody to play release manager I'll go running
again.
If getting a release requires applying patches or fixing issues I do
not have the cycles at the moment
