BTW, while I was doing this massive brain surgery on the Modeler code base this weekend, I noticed that assembly profile builds fail with Ruby errors when generating PDFs:
$ mvn clean verify -Passembly,mac ... [ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.asciidoctor:asciidoctor-maven-plugin:3.2.0:process-asciidoc (generate-pdf-doc) on project getting-started-guide: Execution generate-pdf-doc of goal org.asciidoctor:asciidoctor-maven-plugin:3.2.0:process-asciidoc failed: (LoadError) load error: stringio -- java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError: null: no such method: org.jruby.RubyString.cat19(RubyString)RubyString/invokeVirtual: loader constraint violation: when resolving method 'org.jruby.RubyString org.jruby.RubyString.cat19(org.jruby.RubyString)' the class loader 'bootstrap' of the current class, java/lang/Object, and the class loader org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.realm.ClassRealm @5635b14b for the method's defining class, org/jruby/RubyString, have different Class objects for the type org/jruby/RubyString used in the signature (java.lang.Object is in module java.base of loader 'bootstrap'; org.jruby.RubyString is in unnamed module of loader org.codehaus.plexus.classworlds.realm.ClassRealm @5635b14b, parent loader 'bootstrap') -> [Help 1] Playing with asciidoc plugin versions didn't help. If this is reproducible for others, this will be a blocker for the release. Anyone else can confirm that it happens for them? FWIW, I have an idea of a "dirty" fix... We don't need to include documentation in downloads in general and in PDF format in particular. Docs on the website should serve everyone's needs just fine.
