I would like at least a week to try this out as we are using testNG via
ant currently. I'll be away Mon&Tue but can test later on and report my
experience.

Looks good to me and if the Maven bootstrap works and activemq-core then
I think things should be fine. What do you think the best approach is
for introducing the new code into the wild?

1) Let people test the new snapshot for a while and if nothing crops up
release it?
2) Do a quick release of what's in trunk + 1)
3) Possibly bump the major number of the surefire plugin to match the
bump in surefire on the trunk?

I would suggest having a period of a week to let people try it and if
nothing is reported then perform the swap.
