+1 The only thing I would like to preserve from my branch is the werkz stuff. For the most part I have completely rewritten the core as a series of components which can be integrated piece wise post 1.0 along with Wagon and this will definitely make developing Maven easier. If you work on rc2 then I'll focus on testing the new components, getting the coverage up and moving stuff into CVS. Wagon will be the first piece to land, most likely in a few days. > If so, I might embellish a bit, put it on > the wiki, and make sure JIRA is setup appropriately. +1 > Cheers, > Brett > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Vincent Massol [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: Tuesday, 18 November 2003 2:20 AM > > To: 'Maven Developers List' > > Subject: RE: rc2 unstable > > > > > > Guys, sorry to ask again but I have trouble understanding > > what's in those branches.
