ActiveMQ 4.1.2? 4.2? ActiveIO 3.1? releases

[David Jencks]

Geronimo is still using ActiveMQ 4 and I've applied patches for or  
fixed a few bugs that are fairly important for getting MDBS working  
reliably and fixing other problems.  So, I'd like to get a release  
out of the 4.x branch for the upcoming Geronimo 2.1.1 release.

I've looked through the jiras for 4.x and applied the patches for  
ones that I had a clue about.  If anyone else wants something fixed  
in 4.x please speak up.

ActiveIO trunk has a fix that we'd like (don't put non-strings in  
system properties) so I'd like to release ActiveIO 3.1 also.  Since  
that requires java 5 I'd like to update activemq 4 to use java 5 also  
(I've tried and this is easy to do).  What's the community feeling on  
this?  Is this a real no-no?  Would it be better to have the version  
4.2 and preserve 4.1.x for java 1.4 work?

I'd like to also update the poms to use more modern maven release  
procedures as well.... I haven't looked into this much yet and will  
post further when I do.

thanks
