I feel like we don't really need to fix these methods as they are supposed to be helper methods anyway. If the modello release is out before we're ready to cut the RC, then we can pick it up. Otherwise, I wouldn't lose any sleep over it. Anyone else feel strongly on this issue?
-----Original Message----- From: Dennis Lundberg [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, July 11, 2008 11:57 AM To: Maven Developers List Subject: Re: Preparing for 2.0.10 RC1 Brian, I was planning to upgrade the dependency on Modello in the core, because of a binary incompatibility [1] [2]. I was waiting for the build to fail in CI before I fixed it, but it doesn't seem to have failed yet. The change I was going to make would fix the Modello issue that you documented in the root pom.xml in [3]. I have tweaked Modello so that 1.0-alpha-19-SNAPSHOT now includes the missing helper methods, even though they should be private. I'll get stared on getting that version of Modello released. On a side note, we should make it possible to tell Modello to make these helper methods private before we start pushing out 2.1 releases.
