My understanding of this vote is that it is a decision to officially state the intent of the ActiveMQ project to eventually release Artemis as ActiveMQ 6.x and get moving in that direction to identify and address concerns. For this I vote +1.
We must document this intent clearly on the website, stating that there is no plan to deprecate ActiveMQ 5.x and explain that ActiveMQ 5.x development line will continue. We also must make it very clear on the website that ActiveMQ 6.x is not officially released yet. There are too many users who will not upgrade their current environments easily (or possibly ever) and we must not leave them in a lurch. I agree that there are several points of confusion that must be addressed and these need to be identified on a wiki page so that the project can work through each of them. Also, more testing must be done to prove that all ActiveMQ 5.x supported scenarios have been covered by Artemis, including the migration of existing ActiveMQ 5.x configurations to Artemis (this migration must be exhaustively documented). Another topic that I think should be addressed is the version number that is currently being used for Artemis as releasing it with a version of 2.x sends a confusing messaging to the community. To address the vendor version questions, such questions concerning vendor products have zero bearing on the Apache ActiveMQ project and are not the project's concern.
