3.4.3 fork exists and is going to be java8, and a mostly maintenance release, with updated dependencies
I've already attempted one RC, blocked by arm builds playing up on my laptop. Next week I'm just going to get an arm6s4 linux VM on ec2 and do the docker run from inside it. If it wasn't for the npm problems, there's already be an RC0 out. the 3.5.0 release is going to be the one with bigger changes I'd rather that 3.4.3 goes out asap, with no more fundamental changes. And ideally: that to be the last of the 3.4.x line, though dependency security issues means that's unrealistic. -1 to this change in branch-3.4.3 =0 to it in branch-3.4. When you backport you'll discover junit5 to 4 migration the pain point.
