Well, we thought the next release was going to be a beta release, but we've had a lot of great feedback fixed quite a few important issues with Alpha5 and wanted to get these fixes out as quickly as possible. So just two weeks after Alpha5 we've released 3.0.0.Alpha6 with the following:
See the release notes for details. The release artifacts are available in the JBoss Maven repository, and our examples and documentation has been updated.
If you've been working with the previous Alpha releases, we strongly suggest you upgrade to this Alpha as soon as possible and let us know via IRC or our forums if you run into any issues. And then get ready for 3.0.0.Beta1 in the next few weeks as soon as we finish full-text searching and shareable nodes.
