Hmmm.... Jody, was the release of a RC ever discussed with the PMC?
I haven't seen anything on the mailing list, maybe you collected
opinions on IRC?

I don't have a strong opinion against RC, GeoServer can just skip of
GeoTools 2.7 and start using the new trunk right away if GS 2.1.x
is not released soon, but I have a strong opinion against you deciding
to go RC by yourself.

RC is not just another milestone, it marks a point of no return where
heavy changes start requiring a lot of vetting if not simply just
direct application on the new trunk which will be release ready,
well, not before 6 months?

It's the kind of pace change that should be discussed and approved
at the very least one month before cutting the release imho.

So I'm -1 on a RC release unless everybody in the PSC is ok
with it (the -1 is not on the RC per se, it's on the way it
has been proposed, "RC this weekend", without early warning)

Cheers
Andrea
