Sorry for the late reply on this. Do we need to take any action on our
already released packages?

Cool, I'll create some "clean" packages tomorrow and open a vote
unless someone beats me to it.

Well, we can launch a vote, sure, but it should remain RC1, IMO.

So, remove the JAR for the RC1 release package, and delete the old
packages. Fine by me. Should we call a vote on the edited files?
Perhaps even call it RC2.

I disagree. When you are in a middle of a refactoring, with many
features being added, and you want to have the opportunity to modify the
API, then releasing means you don't respect users. They trust a release
to be stable - ie, the API does not change, at least not too often -.
RCx are a bit more questionnable though. Here, I would rather release
bug fix versions.
However, MINA is a very special case, as it's an API, not a product. I
fully agree with Alan for products like ftpServer, or Vysper, where the
API is quite defined already.
Anyway, we should release 2.0, that's for sure ! It's just a matter of
finding the time to do so, and on my side, it's difficult atm. There was
one little last problem I tried to fix : we needed to redesign the way
we release in Maven, as it was broken. I started to do so, defining a
new module (distribution) but it's not completed yet.

IMO, all these M4, M5..., RC1 stuff is just plain silly. We should release and come out with patches.

As the M4, M5..., RC1 are just intermediate milestones, I think we
should just produce a RC1 without the lib (because we might have a
regression in 2.0), and remove the previous jars

Checked it myself, affected releases are 2.0.0-M4 and newer. How about
for a simple fix, we simple delete the JAR in question from the
release packages?

Good question...
We may need to regenerate all of them, but it's really painful.
