Hi everyone,
It's that time again. For the 2.2.0 release of Maven, we're trying to
keep the number of issues fairly limited to regressions, issues with
quite a few votes that are low-hanging fruit, and some sort of
"strategic" issues. We're moving Maven to JDK 1.5 with this release,
though the entire API has not yet been generified.
We've resolved 15 issues (one is still open, waiting for me to finalize
the associated site docs). The full listing is at the bottom of this
message, and the link to the release notes is:
http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/ReleaseNote.jspa?projectId=10500&styleName=Html&version=15103
You can find the RC1 staging artifacts here:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/maven-staging-008/
...and the binary/source distribution archives here:
https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/maven-staging-008/org/apache/maven/apache-maven/2.2.0-RC1/
Please note that Maven 2.2.0 will require JDK 1.5 to run, so take this
into consideration when testing.
If you come across any problems, please file an issue in:
http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/MNG
and set Affects-Version == 2.2.0.
Thanks!
