Team As you saw the vote for 1.15.2 has passed. Thanks all. However, I am holding off sending the announce thread and such because I can't get the website updated for some reason. It appears to be not unique to us as reported in https://issues.apache.org/jira/projects/INFRA/issues/INFRA-22647?filter=allopenissues. I've also reported in ASF INFRA slack so we'll see. Once sorted will wrap the final announce thread up.
