I agree with Nick. Changing levels to be extensible warrants another Beta. I'd like to see a stable API before we get into RC mode.
What about: - Now: Another Beta - +1 month, If the API is stable: RC1 - RCs until shows stoppers are fixed, pick a rhythm: once a week may be too much, once a month too long. Every two weeks seems pretty frequent for our bunch for a ramp down. Thoughts on that? I am not so much concerned about OSGi now since I look at this as more of a packaging issue and how much gets dragged in the container with dependencies. For OSGi, are we really considering delivering one bundle (jar) per appender? I am more concerned about all the issues people seem to have in servlet environments.
