-1 (binding) Due to the missing Spark bundle artifact (see below).
I checked: - source distribution -- signature and checksum are correct -- LICENSE is not fully correct: --- Minio.java is listed two times, but MinioConditionExtension.java and MinioTestResource.java are not listed -- NOTICE is good -- all expected files contain ASF header -- persistence/nosql/.../indexes/words.gz is a binary file. Even if used for test, it should be avoided. It would be great to use a different approach here. - binary distribution -- signature and checksum are correct -- LICENSE contains some mistakes: --- org.graalvm.shadowed:xz is listed twice with different license (UPL-0 and BSD-0). I believe that BSD-0 is the correct one. Worth to check there. --- org.conscrypt:conscrypt-openjdk-uber is listed twice (conscrypt and Conscryt). A welcome cleanup to do. -- NOTICE is not fully correct: --- joda-time notice is not included ( https://github.com/JodaOrg/joda-time/blob/main/NOTICE.txt) --- conscrypt is duplicate (similar to the LICENSE) - Spark client -- the bundle jar is not present in the Maven staging repository, whereas it's present on previous releases. We can say it's a regression, so a -1. I will create the PRs to fix the different issues.
