Hi all,

we have accumulated enough changes since the last 4.0 release as well as
we need to provide a fix for the known remote code exploit via java
de-serialization. Therefore, I would like to start a vote to release
Commons Collections 4.1 based on RC1.

Note:

The fix for the security related issue results in Clirr errors as unsafe
classes in the functor package do not implement the Serializable
interface anymore. This is mentioned in the release notes.


Collections 4.1 RC1 is available for review here:
    https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/collections/
    (svn revision 11263)

Maven artifacts are here:


https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1122/org/apache/commons/commons-collections4/4.1/

Details of changes since 4.0 are in the release notes:
