I *just* got the group expressions work (SUREFIRE-809) working, both in JUnit and in TestNG.

When you cut the tag for this, I had it working for JUnit, but not for TestNG, and there weren't any tests besides those that were already in place before I started the work.

I *think* the code is stable, but not complete. If you really want to go ahead with this release, I won't block it, but I'll plan on doing another one in a couple weeks (I may try to see if there are other issues I'd like to tackle first).

Of course, my preference would be to pull this vote back and do it again in tomorrow afternoon, once I have a chance to put in these changes I'm finishing up now.

Thoughts?

Hi,

This is the first java 1.5 version of the surefire plugin. For Junit3
it is still capable of forking down to java 1.3. Parallel forks are
the new thing in this release,
and it should now be possible to run balanced parallel forks; a pretty
cool feature for people with long-running tests.

     * [SUREFIRE-804] - Testcase fails with forkMode=always and
