Referencing Jason's email on the JBoss AS 6.1.0 release: http://lists.jboss.org/pipermail/jboss-development/2011-April/016804.html Let's be sure the OPEN JIRAs reflect the actual issues targeted for the release and they are being addressed. The 56 issues can be seen here: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBAS/fixforversion/12315870 Of the 56, 15 tracking Component Upgrades 10 Documentation 7 tracking Test Suite Failures If you're assigned a JIRA that was reopened for the 6.1.0 release but do not (or can not due to other priorities) plan to address the issue, unassign it so it can be picked up or reassigned to someone else. Hope to see you all next week at JUDCon[1]. Shelly McGowan JBoss, by Red Hat [1]http://www.jboss.org/events/JUDCon.html
