Hello,

Due to factors previously disclosed we’re going with a 2.0.0 release candidate 
soon, perhaps early as next week.  Here are the changes:

1. FC-180 [ fortress-web ] Selenium tests to also use other drivers     
2. FC-179 [ fortress-web ] Firefox 48 broke Selenium tests
3. FC-182 [ fortress-core ] AdminRoleP.removeOccupant not using tenantId
4. FC-116 Need the ability to get user specific attributes for fine grained 
access determinations
5. FC-181 Multitenancy for Realm and Web
6. FC-183 [ fortress-core ] Use Apache IANA Number of OID
7. FC-144 Ability to assign groups to roles     

That’s quite a lot and it's all going in one shot, which is the reason for not 
breaking it into milestones.  My inclination is after the 2.0 RC1 has been out 
for a few weeks, running without problems, we go with the 2.0 GA.  Perhaps by 
thanksgiving but certainly by the end of the year.  

My rationale for quickly moving to GA:

a. these changes are distinct and do not require a lengthy period to stabilize 
nor a multiphased rollout
b. after being at 1.0 RC level for many years not particularly excited about 
repeating the experience for 2.0.  :-)

Of course I welcome opposing viewpoints so let me know if you feel otherwise.

Thanks,
Shawn
