Yes, in general, you cannot wait for every other dependency release. SLF4J 2.0 is a bigger deal because it is the first stable release to add jigsaw support. But you are right: users can just pull in version 2.19.0 of log4j to get SLF4J 2.0 compatibility. That's why I was undecided and gave neither +1 nor -1.

Once one dependency is ready, whispers come through that yet another dependency is considering a release. Since I cut the RC1, graphics2d has already published a v0.41.

Maybe it's worth to wait for that release and then go directly to log4j 2.19.0 as it seems both POI and log4j will release at about the same time.

With a version number of 2.19.0, I am expecting that users who want to use POI 5.2.2 or 5.2.3 with log4j 2.19.0 can just update their own build files. While I like to keep POI up to date, delaying releases to wait for downstream jars can be a real pain. Once one dependency is ready, whispers come through that yet another dependency is considering a release. Since I cut the RC1, graphics2d has already published a v0.41.
If there was a security issue, I would wait - but I checked the mailing lists and there is no evidence that 2.19.0 has any security implications.

Hi,
the colleagues over at log4j are preparing the 2.19.0 release (currently in RC) that adds a bugfix and support for SLF4J 2.0 that was requested by Spring devs. They have found a last minute issue that is currently being worked on and will probably release soon. Maybe it's worth to wait for that release and then go directly to log4j 2.19.0 as it seems both POI and log4j will release at about the same time.

Re: [VOTE] Apache POI 5.2.3 release (RC1)
Posted by Dominik Stadler <do...@gmx.at>.
Hi,
Mass-regression tests look good, only new 11 failures compared to 5.2.0,
seems we are slightly more picky about missing columns in xlsx-tables or
some new features trigger this now.
See
http://people.apache.org/~centic/poi_regression/reports/index520RC1to523RC1.html
for "diff" to 5.2.0 and
http://people.apache.org/~centic/poi_regression/reportsAll/index520RC1to523RC1.html
for full results.
Also compared the contents of the jar-files, everything seems proper
compared to previous releases.
So I am +1
Thanks... Dominik.
P.S.: not relevant for release, but it seems we include "poi-javadoc" in
the bin-tgz/zip since a long time. Seems a "poi-*.jar" selects this one. We
should remove this from the bin-package for future releases.

There's one new pptx exception, and a small number of fixed emf/wmf exceptions.
Reports are here:
https://corpora.tika.apache.org/base/reports/tika-2.5.0-poi-reports.tgz
Let me know if you have any questions!
