+1 paulk (binding) I checked: * "incubating" in distribution file names * NOTICE, LICENSE and DISCLAIMER files exist * No unexpected binary files in src zip * Verified signatures and checksums for all zips * Gradle bootstrap for src zip using: "gradle -p gradle-bootstrap" (I used gradle 8.11) * Everything built correctly using the docker image and locally and verify.sh worked with some minor adjustments (see notes below). * Build core from source: "./gradlew build -PskipTests -x docs" * Build grails-gradle from source: "./gradlew build -PskipTests" * Build grails-forge from source: "./gradlew build -PskipTests"
Some things to fix for next time: * Build failed for docs target locally but worked fine excluding that task (I've seen your PR to fix for next time) * Build failed locally for grails-forge until I did a manual publishToMavenLocal and then worked after that. * README.md references M4 in three places (e.g. "sdk install grails 7.0.0-M4") and RELEASE.md at least once. * verify-reproducible.sh failed for me (daemon disappeared unexpectedly) Cheers, Paul.
