I don't really get a vote, but as a user, implementer, and recommender, I heartily agree with this. parallel resolution in 2.2, and tie off a 2.1 final as quickly as possible.

Cheers,
Christian.

At that point, we can make plans for a relatively fast release of 2.1.1 for the higher-risk issues that are sitting in the 2.1.0-M* buckets now...possibly parallel artifact downloads if we can ever get test coverage for that.
IMHO the introduction of the parallel artifact download is a significant change that is beyond bugfixing maintenance but a new feature and as such warrants a minor version increment, i.e. 2.2. As a user, I dislike mere micro version increments when there is presumably "higher-risk".

Couldn't agree more. In the case of parallel artifact resolution, I'm unwilling to move on it at all until we can get a really solid test suite written for it, and TBH I'd much prefer involving Don in that effort, since he wrote the code and will have thought about the problem (including, perhaps, some failed initial attempts) much more than the rest of us. IMO, this would inform his testing, and give us a better chance of releasing without bugs.

I'm +1 for moving parallel resolution to 2.2, definitely.
