hi marvin, a released version can't get dropped later on. (it's important that the commit and release history is immutable.)
therefore we send out a heads-up mail (about two weeks before a release-vote). (since we release quite often some projects even have a 2nd ci-job which executes the test-suite (of the application) against the latest (daily) snapshot (see [1]) to ensure that they can upgrade to the next version easily and without a significant overhead.) regards, gerhard [1] http://deltaspike.apache.org/documentation/snapshots.html 2015-08-12 16:15 GMT+02:00 Marvin Toll <marvint...@gtcgroup.com>: > Gerhard, > > > > We are attempting to provide feedback as we have time.
