 Question for everyone.

 What are peoples thoughts about making 2.1.9 (in January) the last of the
 2.1.x line?

 2.2.x will have been out for 10 months by then so users definitely should
 have
 had plenty of time to migrate.   2.2.x is generally a simple migration
 from
 2.1.x.   I think most of the other major open source projects that were
 tracking 2.1.x have already moved onto 2.2.x.   ServiceMix, Camel, JBoss,
 etc... The remaining projects that are using 2.1.x seem to be stuck
 on
 a
 particular version (like Mule stuck on 2.1.3) and not tracking the
 fixes
 anyway.

 The main migration issue from 2.1.x to 2.2.x is the JAX-RS version (0.8
 -
 1.0).   However, we aren't fixing any of the JAX-RS issues on 2.1.x
 anyway.
 Thus, that's not a real reason.  If you are using JAX-RS, you definitely
 want
 the compliant implementation in 2.2.

 Anyway, making 2.1.9 the end of the line should then make it such that
 when
 2.3 is ready (hopefully in Q1), we can just keep 2 fixes branches active.

 Thoughts?  Comments?

Hi



Question for everyone.

What are peoples thoughts about making 2.1.9 (in January) the last of the 
2.1.x line?

I agree



Anyway, making 2.1.9 the end of the line should then make it such that when 
2.3 is ready (hopefully in Q1), we can just keep 2 fixes branches active.
