I propose a vote to do a 2.1.0-beta-1 release ASAP. I think it would be advantageous to do a release before folks start taking time off for summer. This would allow better testing and free up the main branch for new features. This would be similar to what we did with the 2.0.0-alpha releases [1]
My vote is +1 to do a release this week (or next week). Main branch released as 2.1.0-beta-1 or 2.1.0-alpha-1 [1]: https://accumulo.apache.org/release/accumulo-2.0.0-alpha-1/
