After 3 years, we would still have an 1.5.0.EA there. Red Hat is a company that uses EAs quite often. They have a separate Maven repo for them, from which they prune the EAs once they become GA. I prefer that we publish a RC1 to a staging repo and inform our users via mailing list. All they'd have to do to take 1.5.0-RC1 for a spin is add the staging repo to their pom.xml. *Raúl Kripalani* PMC & Committer @ Apache Ignite, Apache Camel | Integration, Big Data and Messaging Engineer http://about.me/raulkripalani | http://www.linkedin.com/in/raulkripalani http://blog.raulkr.net | twitter: @raulvk
