Thanks Matt and Gary.
I do recall seeing the asf-wide note that my commit-bit also applies to
commons-*. Thanks for bringing that up. Specifically though, I am only
interested in cutting a release -- if we can get a new release cut that
we can use downstream, that increases the likelihood that I will have
more things to contribute back :)
I'll pull up the thread in the archives and get back to ya'll with any
questions I have after that.

It's from the thread called "Whatever happened to commons-io 2.5?" A few
people stepped up to give the necessary permissions and committed his GPG

Hi,
Agreed, VFS 2.1 has been too long in the making. We can release ASAP
without fixing more bugs IMO. RERO and all.
As an Apache committer, your are also an Apache Commons committer, so feel
free to create JIRAs, fix bugs and so on.
There might be some karma issues with a non-PMC member performing a
release, and I think we just went through this (sorry, I'm in settling in a
new house, not much time to dig in the ML archives).
Does anyone recall?

Hi all,
There are presently 171 resolved issues sitting in commons-vfs2
2.1-SNAPSHOT, with 4 outstanding (none of which look like blockers to
me).
The lack of any release of commons-vfs2 in years has been a big problem
downstream. This past weekend, I was again annoyed by bugs that have been
fixed (but not release) which is spurring me to take some action. There
have been emails reaching back as far as 2014 asking when the next
release
might be, not to mention the fact that vfs-2.0 was released in 2011 (!).
History aside, I'm reaching out today to:
1) See if anyone on the PMC has the cycles to volunteer as RM.
1a) If not, how can you empower me (or others) to make the release on
your behalf.
2) Understand, specifically, what (if any) roadblocks exist to release
this version.
Thanks.
