Jason Greene reopened JBAS-7999:
--------------------------------



Due to feedback from the community, I have split the AS7 and AS6 projects and reopened all unscheduled AS6 issues that are a year or less old. This will make it easier community members to find and work on them.

Future releases beyond 6.1 can be done provided a community member steps up to coordinate them.

> When a node becomes master, it tells any previous master to stop. That call is async, probably because long ago this was done on a JGroups up thread and making a sync call from that up thread would hang. This is no longer done on an up thread, so investigate adding a config option to allow is call to go synchronous, thus ensuring the old master is fully stopped before new one starts.
