Here is my opinions: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6167 - it's too late now. punt to 3.5.1 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6168 - If this is available and ready quickly (i.e. in the next week), we can review the changes and assess the risk https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6186 - looks like not merged and released upstream yet... punt to 3.5.1 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6188 - it's too late now. punt to 3.5.1 (anyway I see similar issues with other native tooling that uses console colouring) https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6169 - definitely too late. punt to 3.5.1 https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MNG-6185 - sounds like only a javadoc change. If available quickly should be ok If there is agreement then I will move MNG-6185 and MNG-6168 into fix for 3.5.0 and the rest to 3.5.1-candidates
