Re: [eclipselink-dev] Time to cut a new 2.7?

Well, okay. I guess what I'm trying to ask is: Can we cut a new 2.7 release with what is present in 2.7 right now?

where when first part of both sentences ("go through open PRs" and
"evaluate open issues") is done, answer to your question can be given.
Second part of both sentences goes a step beyond what is required right
now but maybe there is some low hanging fruit we could add to the
release. I don't have all existing issues and PRs in my head, sorry.
