+1 Tested src zip file, ASC and SHA512 OK. Builds OK with 'mvn clean verify'
I did not do any integration testing with my apps as it is a pain to use something that is not in MC yet so that my CI/CD can more easily pick it up in branch builds. I'm happy to see real bits go out though! :-) - TODO not a blocker: Remove SHA256 files from dist.a.o, SHA512 is enough. - TODO not a blocker: Use the enforcer plugin to make it obvious we require Java 11 or above.
