Hi Niels, Thank you for the guidance. In the case of #773805 (maven pom), I do believe that it's not RC from a severity standpoint. I think #773829 might fall into the same category, although I do have a patch and will be uploading a new package with just this build change tomorrow morning. Cheers, tony
