Hi Jon,

nothing more than the proposal "To make it clear this is a VOTE by LAZY
consensus to use 7.0.0 as next tomee release version." = starting a [VOTE]
Apache TomEE 7.0.0 following this vote.

"What is GA" - guess you mean more Final since GA just means available and
milestone are king of GA by definition? I think it is what the *project*
judges stable enough. I think it is very important for us to break this
insane dependency to Oracle we don't control and having delayed us of at
least 2 years. This means you can see the vote as "is master stable enough
to be released as Final and no more as milestone which supposes implicitly
no quality guarantee?".

Legally we can do Final (0.0) when we want certified or not (TomEE is an
autonomous ASF project).

If we get TCK and certified we can do a 8.0.0 if you want to "mark" it but
that's another topic we'll cover if relevant at that point.

Does it clarify the intent?
