   Making main work with 2.1.0-SNAPSHOT would be convenient for developers. We 
don't perform releases from this repo, so we should avoid referring to it by 
that term, which has a specific meaning within the ASF.
   
   I prefer a 2.0 branch rather than a tag, though, because we don't need to 
freeze the testing code for 2.0 just because we're not doing releases of 
Accumulo 2.0 anymore. For example, we may wish to write a new test for 2.1, and 
maintain an equivalent version of it for 2.0 to compare the differences between 
the two Accumulo release lines. You can do that with a 2.0 branch, but not with 
a tag.
