I cannot speak to the specific issues you cited, but we should minimize
new development if we hope to release soon.  From my perspective, we
could fix any remaining Guava issues then cut 2.1.0, leaving other
issues for 2.1.1.

We should use JIRA to track any blocking issues via the following query
which lists 2.1.0 targets:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/issues/?jql=project+%3D+JCLOUDS+AND+resolution+%3D+Unresolved+AND+fixVersion+%3D+2.1.0+ORDER+BY+priority+DESC

I removed the target from 30 issues with 13 remaining.  Someone more
knowledgeable about compute should do a second pass.

We also have a large number of issues with assignees that are not likely
active:

https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/JCLOUDS/summary/statistics

We should unassign these to avoid licking the cookie and discouraging
other contributors.
