[BeanUtils] Release 2.0.0 soonish

[Simon Ochsenreither]

Hi Gary,

first of all thanks for doing all the work and updating these libraries.

Two short questions:
- Do you have an estimated time until beanutils2 ships (days, weeks, months)?
- Would it be possible to add a Automatic-Module-Name entry to the MANIFEST.MF
file for better Java 9 support?
I think it might be as easy as adding <attribute name="Automatic-Module-Name"
value="org.apache.commons.beanutils2"/> to the build.xml file.

Thanks again!

Simon

Hi Simon.

You're welcome :-)

I do not have a schedule. I would guess within a month,

Please provide a PR for your change, it's just so much easier for me to
deal with.

Also please review what we have in Git master now.

I encourage you to test your software with a SNAPSHOT version to make sure
everything is OK.

Gary

Hi Gary,

I added the Automatic Module Name and sent a PR request
(https://github.com/apache/commons-beanutils/pull/4) a while ago ... is there
anything I can do to help moving this forward?

Thanks,

Simon
