jbosstools-livereload and jbosstools-vpe are still failing to build/test/install/run against newer version of Kepler because they still depend on parent pom 4.1.0.Beta1-SNAPSHOT. Those need to be updated AS SOON AS POSSIBLE if we want the release to behave smoothly. Please act accordingly.
Some other components might depend on parent 4.1.0.Beta1-SNAPSHOT as well, but their CI jobs are still blue. Anyway, you should update them to 4.1.0.Beta2-SNAPSHOT if you want to make sure you build and test against most recent versions of other components. Fast feedback is a key to overall productivity and quality, and not following the stream is just delaying feedback.

Beware that the release is approaching very quick, and that it's much less effort and less stress to fix issues *before* we branch and release. In order to spot issues, you need to follow the stream.
