Jacopo, Are we talking binary releases (the convenient downloads) for our adopters?
Because, according to conventions of the ASF, external libraries are not allowed in our source release branches. And that is why we use the Gradle solution and have download definitions. So that we don't have that (external libraries) when we cut a release. Best regards,.
