Current we just do the 1.6.x release on 1.x branch, I think it's fine
for us. If we are moving to Camel 3.0 after camel 2.6.0, we can do the
same thing for the camel 2.6.x release.
FYI, Freeman Fixed the issue on the ServiceMix side[1], we don't need do
Camel 2.5.1 release any more.

Hi Willem,
Personally I am in favor it and I could start the release builds immediately.
However:
1. There is no camel-2.5.1 branch so one would have to be created. We could
create a camel-2.5 branch off of the 2.5.0 tag.
2. There is no precedent for having patch releases in Camel (3rd digit). It
doesn't mean we cannot start it (I would like that actually) but we need to
discuss it and agree on something
3. If we do that it would make sense to have more formal support cycle for a
version. Camel imho got a maturity level that almost requires it.
My preference would be a 6 weeks release cycle, meaning 2 releases per quarter.
Patch releases should be 100% backwards compatible (including dsl), no version
upgrades for dependencies and should only include bug fixes. Minor releases
(2nd digit) could bring new features, components, dependency upgrades (as we do
it now). Major releases will be rare, but 3.0 is coming up.
Thoughts/ideas/preferences?

Hi,
I just found some issues[1][2] of camel-cxf in Camel 2.5.0 which cause the
camel-nmr component tests[3] failed. I didn't find a way to work round the
camel issues without changing the code camel.
As you know ServiceMix 4.3.0 releasing is on the way, if we let ServiceMix pick
up the latest Camel 2.6.0, there will be not just waiting for the Camel 2.6.0
release issue. ServiceMix also need to upgrade it's CXF version to 2.3.x and
prepare the bunch of new JAXWS, JAXRS bundle release.
Now I propose to do Camel 2.5.1 release myself by merging the upper camel fix
into 2.5 branch, In this way, we can fix the camel-nmr issue without blocking
the ServiceMix 4.3.0 release.
Any thoughts ?
