com.springsource.service.scope is a property on services that if set to 'global' allows the service to be made available outside of an application scope. This is an inappropriate name. Update all references (including in docs and tests) to this property name -- change to something like: org.eclipse.virgo.service.scope.
Because a failure to rename this property is likely to be tricky to debug, we tolerate the old property name as a synonym for the new property name, at least for the 2.1.0 release. See http://wiki.eclipse.org/Virgo/Community/Migrating_from_dm_Server#Migrating_from_dm_Server_2.0.x_to_Virgo_2.1.0.x.
At Steve's suggestion, when the old property name is encountered, we issue a warning, like this: <KE0300W> Service property in bundle 'oldService' version '1.0.0' (bean 'oldBean') should be renamed from com.springsource.service.scope to org.eclipse.virgo.service.scope.
RC1 is planned instead of milestone 5.
