[weld-dev] Towards Weld 3.0

Hi all, as outlined at http://weld.cdi-spec.org/news/2014/09/18/weld-next/ we are starting to work on Weld 3.0. Important changes: - the master branch now hosts Weld 3 development - we now require Java 8 for both compilation and runtime. The release of Weld 3.0.0.Alpha1 is planned for early October with some early prototypes. The initial prototype effort is driven by the discussion at cdi-dev mailing list (https://lists.jboss.org/mailman/listinfo/cdi-dev) and is tracked by this top-level issue: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/WELD-1738 Weld 2.2 remains maintained with on-demand releases. Weld 2.2 is hosted in the newly-created 2.2 branch on github. Jozef
