It looks like 2.9 will be a much larger release. The 2.4.1 src dist I have is 5.9MB zipped - the 2.9 version is 15.3 MB zipped. It all looks legit to me though. I'll post a list of the biggest changes so someone can flag if they think something is off. It appears legit to me though: src dist 2.4.

I'm tempted to say lets start the freeze tomorrow instead - I could do another full day of doc/packaging no problem I think (a bunch left to do on the website stuff alone) - and technically the releaseToDo wants everything to go through a patch in JIRA first while in freeze (not a bad idea at all)

I still think we should wait to branch the trunk until after the week. Its easy enough to work in JIRA with patches for that brief period if someone really wants to get going. But if we just start switching everything to Java 1.5 and removing deprecated API's, its going to be a real pain patching b

I don't look at it as just the week really. We got to 0 issues last week, and these new issues have all really been cleanup and and bug fixes. We have been in quasi feature freeze really. A lot of the issues that are being addressed would have made sense to address over the normal feature freeze. I

I know there is still some discussion about the 2.9 release, so things could change - but I think its a good idea to start discussion on a schedule anyway. I'll throw out to start: Feature freeze Wednesday (Aug 26th) - we already are kind of in feature freeze, but this would make it official. Le
