Benedikt Waldvogel commented on IO-881:
---------------------------------------
I could imagine that the impact of this issue is larger than you might expect.
It’s rather common to use automation tools to keep the dependencies up-to-date,
such as Renovatebot, Dependabot or Gradle’s "{{{}latest.release{}}}" with
dependency locking. Those automation tools fail now since they suggest to bump
the version to {{{}20030203.000550{}}}.
…even the version badge on [https://github.com/apache/commons-io] is currently
wrong ;)

Wouldn’t it be possible to publish a new version, such as {{{}2.21.1{}}},
triggering a regeneration that fixes
[https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/commons-io/commons-io/maven-metadata.xml?]
> 20030203.000550 is now latest version in Maven
