Sounds like a reasonable plan. +1 for keeping delivering the same assemblies we did for M1.

I've been traveling this week a little bit and apologize for being tardy in catching everyone up on M2.

Based on the commit log it appears that Dain and Mr. Blevins pulled a little rabbit out of the hat called EJB 3.0. Ok, the fur is a little muttled and it might be missing an ear but it really does look like a rabbit :)

In keeping with the mantra of release early and often we originally had talked about getting M2 out by the end of January. I had proposed the 26th and it still might be doable depending on where we get to. From the release notes prepared by Hernan (thanks sir) here are the items we wanted to get into M2. Some of the items below are already included and some are in process.

========================================

Based on the above perhaps we can branch on Monday around 1700 Eastern time and package up what we have there. From a user perspective I think we should be able to deploy the EJB samples that Prasad and Hernan put together. If we can do that even though they are simple it would certainly let people see that the train continues to move.

So this now brings me to the question of assemblies. For M1 we shipped Tomcat and Jetty versions with CXF and OpenJPA. As we talked about in another thread there isn't really a way to generate all the permutations of different assemblies I think for M2 we would ship the same configurations and in parallel have a discussion on packaging for when we get to the beta's so that users and better pick the versions of the software they want.

Comments, feedback, on this plan?
