Should I prepare a summary of the non-versioned issues? What else can I
do to push the release process?

Only if you think any should go in 1.1.

I did some work on it at the weekend - fixed the code to build under
1.3. I'm working on the changes.xml file (release notes), I'll have
that finished today.

Other things that jump to mind:

* We should create a pom.xml file (Maven-2 build). As long as the
parent gets deployed (cf: some other thread on commons-dev). Feel free
to take a stab at that - shouldn't be too hard as there are other
pom.xml's to (largely) copy.
* Update the site - this mostly means changing 1.0 for 1.1 if it
appears in the text, but any problems you can find/patch in the site
are good for now.
* Create a jardiff report - need to see what's changed API-wise and
add that to release notes.
* Build the ant dist and maven site and call a vote. I'll take care of
that once the other bits are done.

It doesn't look that bad - jardiff complains that we've moved a method
into a superclass in a few places. So a recompile will be needed (I
think) rather than being able to drop the jar in place.

You might want to try a clirr report to check for binary compatability. 
IIRC, moving a method up the hierarchy is binary compatible.


If not, then a simple super.xxx() method in the subclasses where the 
method was removed from should be added.

It seems to give the same info:

Yup, that'd work.

INFOs are OK though.

Yep, you're both right. Quick test shows that in 1.3 and 1.5 the JVM
happily switches to the parent method of 1.1 if compiled against the
child method in 1.0.
