THIS IS A TEST INSTANCE. ALL YOUR CHANGES WILL BE LOST!!!!
Release Plan for UIMA Version 2.3.0
We will use Jira for tracking assignments, due dates, etc. of tasks needed for release. Please see Jira for your assignments 
Components being released
- UIMA-base
- UIMA-AS
- Annotator Add-on + Simple Server + tools (also known as Sandbox)
- UIMA-CPP
This will be a synchronized release - all components at 2.3.0 level.
Major Changes
- Pear packager maven plugin moved to base (goal - have as uploadable maven plugin to maven repos)
- Cas Editor moved to base
- UIMA-AS continues as separately buildable distributable component - but becomes add-on (doesn't include base UIMA)
- Sandbox release deletes things moved out of it, and gets some new components included
SVN tagging
After freeze, release candidates will be tagged from trunk. Fixes only in trunk, no fixes in tag. Between freeze and release, trunk is not used for development (we're "frozen"), but development can continue on branches, if needed.

Jira Review

Web Site
The main web site pages will be updated after the release, but new pages can be constructed (but not linked to) prior to the release, in preparation for it.
