[jboss-dev] Re: AS 4.2.2.GA status - please read

[Amit Bhayani]

Whats the release date for Messaging 1.4.GA?
Portal team, next release of Installer will have Portal 2.6.1.GA hope no 
change in that.
This time let us make sure that Installer releases no latter than 7 days 
from AS 4.2.2.GA release.
