Basically we are incubating the main trunk (which has been under active development for some time). Incubation means we have to go through all the code, checking all the headers & dependencies, double checking CLAs and changing the package names etc. Given 4.x will replace 3.x very soon we didn't see any real point keeping the old branches at Apache; since we can't really without incubating all of those too and there's only so many hours in the day. There just didn't seem a need to incubate old branches of the code as well. FWIW we should move Geronimo to 4.x as soon as possible; though we need a release of ActiveMQ first to be able to do that.. >Since I see evidence of a new ActiveMQ 3.2.2 release Its an emergency bug fix; no development has been done on 3.x for months other than bug fixes. >Also, is anyone from the ActiveMQ community looking at the ActiveMQ >Jira's under Geronimo?

Our focus up to now has been trying to actually release the 4.x branch with the change to the org.apache.activemq package so that folks using ActiveMQ will have a stable platform to build on and we can then look to integrate the incubated ActiveMQ into Geronimo. But we'll get to these JIRA issues ASAP, sorry for the delay. James
