The yoko vote for a release is underway, and the committer portion will
wrap up today and it will be sent to the incubator general list for a
vote. With luck, the M2 release will be available next week.
We also have to update the javamail spec version and also the javamail
provider version. The vote on the spec passed yesterday. I haven't
checked to see if dblevins has published the new release yet. I'll get
the vote started on the provider stuff today, as it was dependent on the
spec jar in order to publish the candidate. That also should be
available early next week.

I think we should start wrapping up the SNAPSHOT deps we have in 1.2
to prepare for a release. These are the ones I am aware of:
openejb 2.3-incubating-SNAPSHOT
yoko 1.0-incubating-M2-SNAPSHOT
activemq 4.1-SNAPSHOT
ActiveMQ is on its way to releasing 4.1.1, which should be available
soonish (maybe sometime next week?).
When can we get non-SNAPSHOT artifacts from OpenEJB and Yoko?

There are also a few SNAPSHOT artifacts configured in the testsuite/*:
maven-invoker-plugin 1.0-SNAPSHOT
maven-surefire-plugin 2.8-SNAPSHOT
We don't even use the maven-invoker-plugin, so that can be dropped.
And the maven-surefire-plugin is for TestNG support, and there isn't
much hope of getting that resolved any time soon. But, these don't
need to be non-SNAPSHOT's for the release (would be nice though) since
this module is not included in the default build.
I suppose we could include the maven-surefire-plugin 2.8-SNAPSHOT (and
its deps) in the repository module (using timestamp-build versions).
But IMO its not a requirement or blocking issue for 1.2 releasability.

There are also 8 unresolved JIRA's for 1.2:
https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&mode=hide&sorter/order=DESC&sorter/field=priority&resolution=-1&pid=10220&fixfor=12310181
Anyone know of any other issues which need to be wrapped up for 1.2?
And/or if any of the above issues should be resolved/deferred for
another release? If you have a moment, please take a peek.
