Hello Lukasz, I would say if the maven release plugin and the maven pgp plug-ins work (on your system and for the Pom) and the project builds on al l supported platforms, go for it. If you have your ASF login and thenPgpg key in the Keys file you would meet the criteria.
I am not sure about backward compatibility, package names and so on, but if it’s the first release it should be a new major, either 1.0 or 4.0.

Not sure if I understand your questions, I still actively support OGNL 3.x which lives on Github, there is a lot of smaller changes which should be moved into this project to keep backward compatibility with projects depending on OGNL. As imported version was 3.0.1 and now there is OGNL 3.2.18 I think this supposed to be the first step. > It seems to me that this project has not been released in a long time, so > there should be some consideration to taking advantage of the version of > Java the component is now sitting on.

I just tried to understand what to do to build the project, and as I understand java15 means Java 1.5 https://www.mojohaus.org/animal-sniffer/animal-sniffer-maven-plugin/usage.html > To make a long story short, we should not be in a rush to release a major > new version just for the sake of creating a release. Maybe that would be > better in the 3.x context, I'm not sure. Right, I'm just trying understand the requirements of releasing a project which belongs to Commons family.
