Hello,
Following Felix feedback, I rollback my +1 vote.
[-1] I do not support this release because:
- I am afraid JMETER_HEAP will disturb users
- It is not clean that we use 2 different env variables
- Same that mirror-server is broken
- The warnings regarding Java 9 should also be dropped or a clear
statement should be in documentation
- This might introduce issues:
- https://github.com/oblac/jodd/issues/567
Would it be possible for next release to reduce the 72 hours or not ?
Regards
