[VOTE][LAZY] Release Apache Commons Parent 59 based on RC1
We have updated the Apache Commons POM since Apache Commons Parent 58
was released, so I would like to release Apache Commons Parent 59.
Apache Commons Parent 59 RC1 is available for review here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/commons-parent/59-RC1
(svn revision 63135)
The Git tag commons-parent-59-RC1 commit for this RC is
86b1b6f9575219f9009cdc89ddf3f1450e9f8982 which you can browse here:
https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf?p=commons-parent.git;a=commit;h=86b1b6f9575219f9009cdc89ddf3f1450e9f8982
You may checkout this tag using:
git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-parent.git
--branch commons-parent-59-RC1 commons-parent-59-RC1
Maven artifacts are here:

For following is intended as a helper and refresher for reviewers.
Validating a release candidate
==============================
These guidelines are NOT complete.
Requirements: Git, Java, Maven.
You can validate a release from a release candidate (RC) tag as follows.
1a) Clone and checkout the RC tag
git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-parent.git
--branch commons-parent-59-RC1 commons-parent-59-RC1
cd commons-parent-59-RC1
1b) Download and unpack the source archive from:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/commons-parent/59-RC1/source
2) Check Apache licenses
This step is not required if the site includes a RAT report page which
you then must check.
mvn apache-rat:check
3) Check binary compatibility
Older components still use Apache Clirr:
This step is not required if the site includes a Clirr report page
which you then must check.
mvn clirr:check
Newer components use JApiCmp with the japicmp Maven Profile:
This step is not required if the site includes a JApiCmp report page
which you then must check.
mvn install -DskipTests -P japicmp japicmp:cmp
4) Build the package
mvn -V clean package
You can record the Maven and Java version produced by -V in your VOTE reply.
To gather OS information from a command line:
Windows: ver
Linux: uname -a
5) Build the site for a single module project
Note: Some plugins require the components to be installed instead of packaged.
mvn site
Check the site reports in:
- Windows: target\site\index.html
- Linux: target/site/index.html
-the end-

Re: [VOTE][LAZY] Release Apache Commons Parent 59 based on RC1
Posted by Alex Herbert <al...@gmail.com>.
I installed it locally from the git tag. I build the following
projects with their default mvn goal using:
Apache Maven 3.9.0 (9b58d2bad23a66be161c4664ef21ce219c2c8584)
Maven home: /usr/local/apache-maven-3
Java version: 1.8.0_362, vendor: Private Build, runtime:
/usr/lib/jvm/java-8-openjdk-amd64/jre
Default locale: en_GB, platform encoding: UTF-8
OS name: "linux", version: "5.4.0-153-generic", arch: "amd64", family: "unix"
RNG
Numbers
Statistics
Lang
Text
No issues found except some javadoc warnings in Text when linking to
private members. I have fixed this in master.

> Validating a release candidate
> ==============================
>
> These guidelines are NOT complete.
>
> Requirements: Git, Java, Maven.
>
> You can validate a release from a release candidate (RC) tag as follows.
>
> 1a) Clone and checkout the RC tag
>
> git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-parent.git
> --branch commons-parent-59-RC1 commons-parent-59-RC1
> cd commons-parent-59-RC1
>
> 1b) Download and unpack the source archive from:
>
> https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/commons-parent/59-RC1/source
>
> 2) Check Apache licenses
>
> This step is not required if the site includes a RAT report page which
> you then must check.
>
> mvn apache-rat:check
>
> 3) Check binary compatibility
>
> Older components still use Apache Clirr:
>
> This step is not required if the site includes a Clirr report page
> which you then must check.
>
> mvn clirr:check
>
> Newer components use JApiCmp with the japicmp Maven Profile:
>
> This step is not required if the site includes a JApiCmp report page
> which you then must check.
>
> mvn install -DskipTests -P japicmp japicmp:cmp
>
> 4) Build the package
>
> mvn -V clean package
>
> You can record the Maven and Java version produced by -V in your VOTE
> reply.
> To gather OS information from a command line:
> Windows: ver
> Linux: uname -a
>
> 5) Build the site for a single module project
>
> Note: Some plugins require the components to be installed instead of
> packaged.
>
> mvn site
> Check the site reports in:
> - Windows: target\site\index.html
> - Linux: target/site/index.html
