Let's step back here. Do you want to release an Alpha or Beta? As opposed to a telling people to try out what is in the HEAD of trunk?
If you do release 2.0, the implications are strict as to what API changes are allowed WRT binary compatibility. If so you can do that if the JCS community agrees. Instead of releasing 2.0, you would release a version 2.0-Beta1, for which you'd have a first tag of 2.0-Beta1-RC1 to VOTE on.
