+1 (binding) Overall things look pretty good to me.
* Validated signatures and checksums * Verified license and notice files in archives * Checked source license headers with 'mvn apache-rat:check' * Built from source archive and ran several automated custom tests to verify things look good * Ran the broker from the binary archive and exercised the web console As a side note I did notice one issue that showed up with the slf4j2 upgrade. It looks like the activemq-partition module has a compile time dependency on the log4j2 impl jar. This caused an issue when I first updated in a project that used slf4j1 as it pulled in the transitive dependency so I ended up with both impls on the classpath. This dependency should only be test scope (like all the other modules) except for the assembly jar, of course. While we should fix this in my opinion I don't think we need to stop the vote and can just fix it in 5.18.1 and 5.19.0 unless others object because: A) the binary distribution still works fine as it only is in issue if you have dependency on that module B) This has been an issue for a while going back to slf4j1, it just shows up now because of the upgrade C) activemq-partition is essentially deprecated and useless so is probably not widely used and should be removed in the future. It was almost removed when we removed LevelDB as it doesn't really serve much purpose. 4) If it's a problem for someone they should be able to easily add an exclusion on that transitive dependency On Sun, Mar 19, 2023 at 1:27 PM Jean-Baptiste Onofré <j...@nanthrax.net> wrote: > Hi, > > After several weeks of work, I'm glad to submit ActiveMQ 5.18.0 to > your vote.
