Excalibur Release

[Shash Chatterjee]

All, - I am planning on doing the RC2 release(s) on Sunday, August 14 - Logkit, SourceResolver will require RC2, and, all dependent modules will get an RC2 release as well.  There is a Cornerstone Threads patch in http://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/EXLBR-25, if someone more familiar with it can look at it, that'd be great, else I'll add that patch in as well. - If there are more changes that anybody can think of that needs to go in, please try your best to get it done by Friday Aug. 12, before the RC2 release.  If more time is needed, please send out an email to stop the RC2 releases. - After the RC2 release, please checkin changes only for critical/show-stopper changes, thus reducing the need for yet another RCx. - Barring unforeseen changes, planning on the final release on Aug. 28th (I believe this requires a PMC vote) Thanks, Shash PS: I am going on family vacation till Aug. 9th, will read email again on Aug. 10th.
