Release notes has this duplicate entry: "Add a Maven benchmark profile for JMH. Thanks to Gary Gregory."
This also shows in the changes report on the site build. Downloaded the src.tar.gz bundle. Build with: Apache Maven 3.9.4 (dfbb324ad4a7c8fb0bf182e6d91b0ae20e3d2dd9) Maven home: /Users/ah403/mvn/mvn Java version: 21.0.11, vendor: Eclipse Adoptium, runtime: /Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/temurin-21.jdk/Contents/Home Default locale: en_GB, platform encoding: UTF-8 OS name: "mac os x", version: "26.5.2", arch: "aarch64", family: "mac" mvn clean verify site artifact:compare -Dreference.repo= https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/staging/ '-Dbuildinfo.ignore=*/*.spdx.json' -Duser.timezone=UTC All clean, including reproducibility check. Note that the site build has the prepare-checkout goal which downloads the current site. This is not required and only useful when updating the site during a release. It should be disabled by default. There are some warnings about using the <centre> tag in all the 'src/site/xdoc/release_X_Y.xml' files. There are some skipped tests in the map, bidimap and properties packages, possibly due to unsupported functionality. A check should be made that they are not skipped as they do not pass. The JIRA report only has old tickets. The latest is 2020. IIRC this report is not fully supported by maven going forward in favour of the changes report with links to JIRA. RAT report OK. Checkstyle report has an error for every source file about missing a header. I do not know why as they have a header when I look at the source. JApiCmp OK. +1 Alex On Fri, 7 Aug 2026 at 12:10, Gary Gregory <[email protected]> wrote: > My +1 (binding) > > Gary > > > On Thu, Aug 6, 2026, 06:18 Gary Gregory <[email protected]> wrote: > > > We have fixed a few bugs and added enhancements since the release of > > Apache Commons Collections 4.5.0, so I would like to release Apache > > Commons Collections 4.6.0. > > > > Apache Commons Collections 4.6.0 RC1 is available for review here: > > https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/collections/4.6.0-RC1 > > (svn revision 86577) > > > > The Git tag commons-collections-4.6.0-RC1 commit for this RC is > > 4107624de41aeed37985d2a069fad41992fd71a2, which you can browse here: > > > > > https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=commons-collections.git;a=commit;h=4107624de41aeed37985d2a069fad41992fd71a2 > > You may checkout this tag using: > > git clone > https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-collections.git > > --branch > > <https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-collections.git--branch> > > commons-collections-4.6.0-RC1 commons-collections-4.6.0-RC1 > > > > Maven artifacts are here: > > > > > https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1956/org/apache/commons/commons-collections4/4.6.0/ > > > > These are the artifacts and their hashes: > > > > #Release SHA-512s > > #Thu Aug 06 10:04:34 UTC 2026 > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-bin.tar.gz=b54c61737ff2ec7eaf6e1caf4d2adae42534dd28a9383c3fae1d5f299bce97b00ca15aee2c81ba4a4b50e64db69103cc3629a43af39b52f90990cdee944d3aa5 > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-bin.zip=7dd17310d9cde4148efca1c077040b4fc390056ac6ed93891037e012db89e5e5fac7cf6b7031c053f66fb36f7a246dab3c9b11a09c8974a8ad2a4b29c4ce7c01 > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-bom.json=af24476bfeebbec0ba5d2cea15671b3f6d7df0b43db5f1b007749e41b6807386e00f04259804099c6e0b30d42cf68691607ae9de69c325765a169ca55c34c190 > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-bom.xml=3afc64e7fe828d3fbd176e378fe3a87187331c22c3270f97bc53e51a3a0f648afdf3249b8b10ee2e8903779bb3ac6cf6cbe99696c719c69668d802ebe4770bd8 > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-javadoc.jar=e41380ffeeef2cea4b1d3b573fa797785a892a69dcf67d12f3ea6933eca0deed9a274c088a030094e8813010cc3568866d9997141262e886876cf7de05ab998b > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-sources.jar=11f08ac33ed6b8736599884d1b39ddf5dbb176b7b65873bcc6f2afc7112c1549c4b86ee74f68bbe7fad693ff4839af384480bcde516c04dfda8b37852c711a40 > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-src.tar.gz=445a1771c01ca87dd37e5ed16304858add36b4f7b8a0032ef2ba6aae8c4e59fa31e45ebcc67c1c71c64f34784c4382b2378ddc212819000a1f04ec25e77513d5 > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-src.zip=6c58b8fd8eee2bc2b081e26c18685a0f13074ba92ef4ca5bd413ffaad71f3df04c977aa56f0eac9472cc8ddee5cb86bfc9525e60816e5e71c78f762566c0c9d2 > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-test-sources.jar=e1c1e2f2906c867728317db4851082ea6ffa81c4b1ec6a59ba676761347c959b0b32a0731deea06cca4ce99ada8ac9499a4272c2fbe3e23f75ed7ffe2a79ad3b > > > > > commons-collections4-4.6.0-tests.jar=9f06898680a41b32d3bb16324d58a20a8ec1cbc36bd5cb2cb369ed51b762d83ff45c018ffefea47ef0a526d3278512ca337dcf4e43f15a67d0b4d725be00a5aa > > > > > org.apache.commons_commons-collections4-4.6.0.spdx.json=7459288c9504a8be96d5d5b55ada620be9c15b30d64dc7f0e2892985e1bb62e6888163e755487c56ada472dab8e00387c6be020329f5f776f275c8f60c7b66f9 > > > > > > I have tested this with 'mvn' and 'mvn clean install site' using: > > > > openjdk version "21.0.12" 2026-07-21 > > OpenJDK Runtime Environment Homebrew (build 21.0.12) > > OpenJDK 64-Bit Server VM Homebrew (build 21.0.12, mixed mode, sharing) > > > > Apache Maven 3.9.16 (2bdd9fddda4b155ebf8000e807eb73fd829a51d5) > > Maven home: /opt/homebrew/Cellar/maven/3.9.16/libexec > > Java version: 21.0.12, vendor: Homebrew, runtime: > > /opt/homebrew/Cellar/openjdk@21 > /21.0.12/libexec/openjdk.jdk/Contents/Home > > Default locale: en_US, platform encoding: UTF-8 > > OS name: "mac os x", version: "26.6", arch: "aarch64", family: "mac" > > > > Darwin Garys-MacBook-Pro.local 25.6.0 Darwin Kernel Version 25.6.0: > > Sat Jul 11 15:27:27 PDT 2026;
