The 3.0-alpha2 release should certainly be the first step. I would even go so far as to announce this release be the last ALPHA release. More visibility is definitely a must. I think we could even make use of our new Jakarta subproject status and temporarily deploy the site generated off the CVS

I agree. I think we're ready for another 3.0 release. There has been surprisingly little comment on the 3.0 API, and I'm also concerned about freezing it until we've had more feedback. We definitely have a "chicken and the egg" problem here. My preference is to continue with a new 3.0 alph
