I took 2.0 code and made a branch fixed the issues I needed at the
moment. I expected that if somebody would like to have another bug
fixed would talk during the vote

trunk is always set to the next release (2.1-SNAPSHOT), maybe it was
at some point set to 2.0.1 by mistake when you built it. Anyway you
would get the newer snapshot from the repo.

I think this one was clear, "only three bugfixes will be applied". I
know that there's a lot of traffic in the mailing list, me for
instance, I prefer not voting if I'm not really confident, eg plugins
i don't use.

as i said before trunk was 2.1-SNAPSHOT and has been like that since
2.0 was released

I think this is now improved having a jira project per plugin so we
can take a clear look to what goes in each revision. Unfortunately
there're still several issues fixed in 2.1-SNAPSHOT that don't have a
fix version, and that'll be still a problem till 2.1 is released


I think it's a good idea if you want other bug fixes, to apply them to
the 2.0.x branch and update jira with the fix version. We can call a
vote for 2.0.2 after.
