As it is primarily created for Confluent Marketplace we need to follow the steps required for hosting in the marketplace, which included how things are to be named, folder structure etc.
Looking at the list of things to do and conflicts with Geode / Confluent requirements. We can remove it from the Apache domain and move it to internal open source repo like gpdb or rabbitMQ while keeping the Apache License. Alternatives can be the VMware or VMware-labs opensource orgs in Github. We can definitely add the missing licenses and wait for 1.12.8 release of Apache Geode to update those dependencies.

I would like to see Geode 1.12.8 picked up once it's available later this month. - the log4j version 2.16.0 advertised in this release fixes only 2 of the 4 recent log4j vulnerabilities. I would prefer to see log4j 2.17.1. - vote email is missing a link to release notes and a link to the KEYS file used to sign the release. - artifact paths and email subject are missing "RC1" qualifier Concerns: - NOTICE and LICENSE are found inside a "doc" folder instead of at the top level of the artifact - Some dependencies are missing from LICENSE. While most deps are Apache2 and don't require a mention, LatencyUtils is BSD-2 and should be mentioned, and likely a few others from Geode's LICENSE need to be there as well because they are incorporated in source form into geode-core. Please consider above suggestions for next time. +0 On 1/4/22, 2:19 PM, "Dan Smith" <dasm...@vmware.com> wrote: Hello Geode Dev Community, This is a release candidate for Apache Geode Kafka Connector version 1.1.0.
