Ok thats sounding more promising, i don't mind not doing a source only release i just want _a_ release with the module jars in maven central, i don't mind what its called 2.0-Beta3 or M6 or something else. So how about if its called 2.0-Beta3 and based off the current trunk so the samples and distro are as they are. I'll try and clean up some helloworld samples but i wont have the time to make all of the samples perfect. ...ant
