Infinispan 7.1.0.CR2 released

Dear Infinispan community,
In the spirit of "release early, release often" we are proud to announce the Infinispan 7.1.0CR2 release. We skipped CR1 as our Nexus repository experienced transient issues after we published the artifacts.
CR2 is mostly a maintenance release. Beta1 brought us a lot of major improvements that we further ironed out in CR2 release. There are a few component upgrades and a new feature worth mentioning - exposing cluster and node based statistics to DMR.
Feel free to join us and shape the future releases on our forums, our mailing lists or our #infinispan IRC channel.
