--------------------------------------
Thanks [~vinodkv]!
Now the open question here is whether we need to do a quick release that
contains only this security fix or we make this part of the planned release
activities (2.6.3 and 2.7.2), the main implication being the timing of this
security fix. Thoughts?
> Bump up commons-collections version to 3.2.2 to address a security flaw
