This is broadly in line with how we have done this previously. -Mxx or -RCxx while the build is considered alpha (spec APIs implementation incomplete and/or specs not final) Drop the modifier and switch to beta once the spec APIs are known to be final. Switch from beta to stable based on user feedback, severity of bugs reports, number of regressions etc. We could, perhaps consider something like: -Mxx == alpha -RCxx == beta <none> == stable Mark --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@tomcat.apache.org
