Right. NIghtly builds are convenient for testing purposes, but not something 
that I would use for day to day development...

There's nothing that prohibits GEP releases to Geronimo releases. There is a 
problem releasing GEP that is directly tied to SNAPSHOT Geronimo server 
releases. In this case, Geronimo 3.0 server has been slowing/prevented GEP 3.0 
release. Hopefully, that will be resolved soon with 3.0-beta. 

A GEP 2.2.x release could have been generated, but wasn't where the GEP team 
was focusing. If request had come in earlier, a 2.2.x release might have been 
called for...
