Thanks for the work.

Please vote to approve this release:
[ ] +1 Approve the release
[ ] -1 Don't approve the release (please provide specific comments)

Overall this looks good, but we have a significant size regression:

-rw-r--r--. 1 nite nite 1227848 Sep 21 12:30 
org.apache.karaf.webconsole.console-4.4.11.jar
-rw-r--r--. 1 nite nite 5294431 Sep 21 12:30 
org.apache.karaf.webconsole.console-4.4.12.jar

The difference is:

nite@nitebug : ~/odl/odlparent on master* $ unzip -l  
org.apache.karaf.webconsole.console-4.4.11.jar  | fgrep .jar
Archive:  org.apache.karaf.webconsole.console-4.4.11.jar
    76956  02-01-1980 00:00   commons-fileupload-1.6.0.jar
   609182  02-01-1980 00:00   commons-io-2.22.0.jar

vs.

I think this needs to be rectified, so -1 from me :(
