I wouldn't bother with previous releases. Or should we? As we're already using CL and Deployers snapshots, I guess we could fix Dependency and Kernel as well, still on the 2.0.x branch, to fit our needs. In the worst case making new 2.1.x branch, same as we did for VFS and Man, which could still be part of JBoss 5.x (aka "existing" jboss releases), leaving bigger MC 2.2.x refactorings for 6.x.
