Due to the near completion of the EE6 specification, and the significant progress that has been made in 5.2 on major EE6 features like Weld (our 299 impl), and Bean Validation (JSR-303), we have decided to shift this work to 6.0.0.M1 (Milestone One). We will periodically release milestones as we add the remaining EE6 capabilities and other interesting features. We plan to tag M1 by Monday, November 16th, with a release by November 23th. The status page for this release is now located here: http://www.jboss.org/community/wiki/AS600M1StatusExecutiveSummary For those actively working on this release, the branch is still called Branch_5_x (admittedly confusing). This will be dropped after we tag, and the remaining 6 work will progress on trunk. Thanks! -- Jason T. Greene JBoss, a division of Red Hat
