We've talk about a 6 week release cycle on 2.x and the M1 RC1 was done on Feb 9 so six weeks from then is in 3 weeks on March 23rd. That seems like a fine date to aim for M2 RC1 to me, does it sounds ok for everyone?
One of the main things I'd like to get done for M2 is to update the build to use the Maven release plugin (TUSCANY-2813) as has been done for the Tuscany plugin builds, that s going to change the release process quite a bit so I'm happy to be the M2 RM to make sure its working properly but if anyone else who hasn't done it before would like a go that would be great too so just volunteer and i can help out with any problems there may be with getting the new release process running smoothly. ...ant
