As there seems to be a majority supporting a release candidate I'd like to find
out what exactly a possible RC would be so that we are all on the same page:

- is it feature complete? IMHO, yes
- is the api stable? IMHO, yes
- do we create a branch or just release from a tag? IMHO, we should branch,
especially if the api is meant to be stable
- we won't push the RC to maven central but would provide a possibility to
download the RC. This is a common approach in other apache projects


How long do we wait until releasing the final 2.0? We might define some
rule/goal for that.

What exactly will be the difference between the RC and the final release? (there
are not that much open tickets left, so that I presume it won't be that big)

I'm in favour of a final release without an RC. Our release process is quite
lean so that it wouldn't hurt to much to release a 2.0.x bugfix release.

Andreas
