Any gut feeling on how long releases take in OpenJPA-land? > If you still like to use openjpa-2.1.x, then just use the org.codehaus.mojo > version of the plugin instead [1].

Probably the TCK will be the biggest indicator if we can switch, then 2.2.x release time. Not sure where our SNAPSHOT discussions will end up, but I can see us potentially releasing now with prior versions of the SNAPSHOTs then beginning another release in 2-3 weeks as the newer versions come along. Seems like there's some merit in releasing now and giving people just a bit more time to get their releases out the door. -David > ----- Original Message ----- >> From: David Blevins <[email protected]> >> To: [email protected] >> Cc: >> Sent: Wednesday, January 4, 2012 7:56 AM >> Subject: Re: Release time? >> >> >> On Jan 3, 2012, at 1:52 PM, David Blevins wrote: >> >>> >>> On Jan 3, 2012, at 12:57 AM, Jean-Louis MONTEIRO wrote: >>> >>>> +1 >>>> >>>> Can we use timestamped snapshot as a workaround (for snapshot deps, I >> mean)? >>> >>> We could maybe release the code ourselves like Geronimo does from time to >> time.
