Definitely not offended - just 6 miles under with work :) Plus Apache stuff - I've been putting time into Jakarta Taglibs (resurrecting lots of old code there), admining the JIRA a bit and getting Apache Attic up and running. Agreed that a release needs to happen and many thanks to Siegfried for volunteering. I'm very prepared to help the release get out, just a bit snowed under to take on the whole thing. Looking at JIRA, there are issues in v1.3 that I think we should cover: * https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-162 is a bug so should be considered for 1.2. * https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-147 has lots of doc goodness and needs to be turned into an xdoc. * https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-161 is a bug, so should also be considered. * https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CLI-170 is something I'd like to get in. I've attached a patch for people's opinions and put in 1.2 for now.
