A full set of patches that allows parallel running of tests in
maven/spring3/junit environment has been released.

This blogpost (http://incodewetrustinc.blogspot.com/) in question outlines the
steps needed for parallel running, and the expected benefits.

The patches have been submitted to the projects in question, but as of today,
they do not exist in any release. The full set of patches has been run on a
"production builf system" in a highly concurrent 2-chip 8 core xeon server for a
total of 7 days flat out without any concurrency related issues, a total of
nearly 7000 builds have been run.

I will be maintaining this patch-set until the respective projects hopefully
accept the patches. (Spring, aspectj, junit and maven-surefire)
