Re: [PROPOSAL] Going forward with Maven 2.x releases

I've renamed the current RC to 2.1.0-M1-RC12-SNAPSHOT, for this reason. If we can put together a plan for the GA release of 2.1.0, I'd prefer to have that in place before we do a final release from this RC branch. Preferably something we can achieve in the next <2 months given current resource

I should have read your email before I replied. I pretty much agree with all of what you are proposing. FWIW, the bug I am working on is MNG-624 and yes, it has a ton of votes. It also addresses MNG-3057, MNG-2446, MNG-2412 and probably several others that are related. My change is pretty much

I'm good with making 2.0.10-RC the head of 2.1.x. I guess I'd like to see some sort of process on 2.1 where enhancements that aren't necessarily 100% compatible can be added so some things can be changed before the branch is considered completely stable. By releasing 2.1.0 I think we'd be giv

I am okay with making 2.0.10 -> 2.1.0 too, but I do have to ask is everyone up to maintaining 3 code streams (3.0, 2.0, 2.1)?

Hi, I'd like to propose that we put together a plan for the next few releases of Maven, and also a plan for what we're going to call them. There has been quite a bit of discussion here, on IRC, and in the back channels about how to structure this, so let's see if we can reach a consensus. T
