This PR has been merged. I think we're all good to start the release process.

Ok, well @slawre...@apache.org <slawre...@apache.org> has a PR with this
issue fixed waiting for a 2nd +1.

This (or similarly labeled) thread(s) have been open since 2021-11-01.

All issues raised in these threads are now resolved (or we believe they
are, and that will get verified when we evaluate the RC).

So I believe we can proceed to create the release candidate.

I volunteer to be the release manager.

I'll start once this final PR to fix the DAFFODIL-2579 issue gets merged.

I think it just comes down to if we want to support that kind of
backwards compatibility.

It doesn't feel high priority to me as long as our pre-built convenience
binaries are always Java 8 compatible. Users building from source should
hopefully be aware of Java compatibility issues and build/run with the
same Java versions.

I've updated DAFFODIL-2579 with a little more background of what's going
on and a potential fix if we do want to always ensure compatibility.

If a daffodil build on java 17 is supposed to be backwards compatible
with a system running java 8, then I would think this would be a bug.

It's not clear to me if that's a bug or not, but even if it is I don't
think it should affect the release. The release candidate container builds
with Java 8, so won't have this issue of building on a new Java but running
with an older. I think it should be fine to bump this bug to the next
release and start the process of releasing 3.2.0.

We have only this issue marked as for release 3.2.0:

I am not sure this is a bug. Please review it.
