+1 (non binding) Some minor improvements to note (see below).
I checked: - source distribution -- signature and checksum are correct -- LICENSE and NOTICE are good (nit: Presto and Delta Lake has NOTICE files that could be included in the Iceberg NOTICE) -- ASF header is present in all expected files -- No binary file found in the source distribution - AWS Bundle -- signature and checksum are correct -- nit: jar contains LICENSE/NOTICE in the root, but also META-INF/LICENSE and META-INF/NOTICE. Usually, we should have only META-INF/LICENSE and META-INF/NOTICE. Also, it seems LICENSE and NOTICE are packaged twice in the jar. -- LICENSE and NOTICE are correct (nit: aws-crt-java, aws-eventstream-java have different NOTICE then the "regular" AWS Java SDK). - Azure Bundle -- signature and checksum are correct -- LICENSE and NOTICE are good (nit: NOTICE could include NOTICE content from reactor-core and reactor-netty). As for AWS bundle, filtering META-INF/LICENSE and META-INF/NOTICE in the shade plugin would be good. - GCP Bundle -- signature and checksum are correct -- LICENSE and NOTICE are good (as for AWS and Azure bundle, filtering on the shade plugin would be welcome). - Flink Runtime -- signature and checksum are correct -- LICENSE and NOTICE are good. Nit: LICENSE and NOTICE are packaged twice in the jar file. META-INF/LICENSE* and META-INF/NOTICE* should be cleanup in favor of the Iceberg LICENSE/NOTICE. - Spark Runtime -- signature and checksum are correct -- LICENSE and NOTICE are good Regards JB On Fri, May 15, 2026 at 7:32 AM Aihua Xu <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Everyone, > > I propose that we release the following RC as the official Apache Iceberg > 1.11.0 release. > > The commit ID is 6976e020b894f6a6777704df2b8c4458cb291ae9 > * This corresponds to the tag: apache-iceberg-1.11.0-rc4 > * https://github.com/apache/iceberg/commits/apache-iceberg-1.11.0-rc4 > * > https://github.com/apache/iceberg/tree/6976e020b894f6a6777704df2b8c4458cb291ae9 > > The release tarball, signature, and checksums are here: > * https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/iceberg/apache-iceberg-1.11.0-rc4 > > You can find the KEYS file here: > * https://downloads.apache.org/iceberg/KEYS > > Convenience binary artifacts are staged on Nexus.
