> > In relation to dependency upgrade, has there been any discussion around automated tooling e.g usage of dependabot or renovate? > > I don't know. I have seen @ijuma being the one who periodically performs dependency upgrades. He may be able to provide more info about this. Thanks, I'll be interested in any details that could be provided @ijuma > Dependabot is a good idea (and some other Apache communities use it), except when it leads to noise. I don't know if there is a way to "mute" it and enable only at the beginning of a release cycle. Yes, it is possible. With dependabot you can limit the number of PRs opened. Setting the limit to `0` will equate disabling depedency update for a given package ecosystem. Renovate has a disabling flag, which could be used. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
