[jboss-dev] AS5 Beta3 status - Sep/13th

[Anil Saldhana]

 From my side:
a) I resolved the EJB3 security assimilation JIRA issue (JBAS-4423) and 
the pending minor issue associated has been moved to EJBTHREE-1047.  Any 
more EJB3 security issues need to be added as new JIRA issues.
b) JBoss-jaspi-api has been uploaded to maven and svn repos as 
1.0-BETA1.  It will be tagged along with the master jboss-javaee project 
(whoever is doing that will handle that).
c) jboss-common-core currently needs an upgrade to 2.2.2.snapshot in AS5 
(I will do this along with my security lib upgrades).  Dimitris, are you 
going to be doing a tagged release of common-core tomorrow?
d) Security libs will be tagged as 2.0.1-BETA1.  I am doing AS5 testing 
of them today.
