I think it is very important we DON'T repeat what happened with M3 where 
a lot of stuff got added at the last minute and a couple of things 
broke. I know we will be doing more testing this time but every new 
feature increases the risk of something slipping through.

If the xmlbeans stuff is transparent (does not require code changes in 
Geronimo) so that this is basically a dependency version update then 
that seems ok; if there are a lot of changes needed to the Geronimo code 
then I would suggest this should just go into the trunk.

I second Jeremy's points. It seems that we won't release any M4 in a 
near future unless we stop adding more and more features/bug 
fixes/enhancements. Bugs shall be fixed, so no talk about it, but I'd 
say that features will only be included until the M4 branch is created.
Provided Dave didn't slow down with his coding, I'd bet he'll add either 
and probably some more ;)
