Re: ASM6 - Alpha2 eta?

Hi Andrew, 
at some point we will have to do a release but the class file format may still change, 
1) There is still an open issue on the spec (VersionedDependence [1]) that can change/alter the class file format 
2) We already have published an artifact on Maven Central with an invalid class file format (ASM6 alpha1), 
i would like to avoid to do that again because it breaks tools (and future tools) that crawles Maven Central. 

My hope is that the class file format will be declared stable at the end of February (or before), so i think it's better to wait 2 more weeks. 

cheers, 
Rémi
