Latest release 3.0.0-M5 has some weird behaviour that makes it impossible to upgrade from 3.0.0-M4 but I saw that current master works well. I am sorry I don't have time to contribute code patches to surefire during this period (no need to explain) but I am actively following the project and I see that all of the patches that went in since 3.0.0-M5 only enhance surefire and did not introduce instability. I can help with bureaucratic stuff and I can take care of ensuring that what we release to the public is in good shape with responsibility. That said, upgrading to 3.0.0M5 is not important to me. I can wait.
