>>
>> My intention is that the version number would match the surefire version
>> number.
>>
>> The name was chosen for two reasons:
>> 1. It's a synonym of surefire
>> 2. It reflects it's function, i.e. when it fails it fails in a safe way.
>>
>> Did I mention that this vote could be controversial?
>>
>> The failsafe-maven-plugin is currently in the *sandbox*.
>>
>> This is the first step for a future 2.4.3-alpha-1 release
