Hi all, Just to say that the release is still happening, it’s just taking a bit longer than usual to get things sorted due to some external circumstances…
The release is now on the apache mirrors and maven central (we need to update the poll_mirrors script to correctly handle https, as lots of the mirrors no longer accept http). I’m trying to update the website with the new java docs, but it looks as though this has all been changed since the last release, and the instructions on our release website no longer apply. In particular, the svn repository where the java docs used to sit now has a single empty file called MOVED_TO_GIT - if anybody knows more about this, please chime in! - A > On 19 Mar 2020, at 15:06, Alan Woodward <[email protected]> wrote: > > I’ll check on the Lucene notes.
