Hello everyone, This is a call for vote to release Apache DataSketches-java candidate version: 5.0.2-rc1
This is a PATCH release. No new functionality has been introduced. There are a number of changes stemming from two issues: - Issue 527 <https://github.com/apache/datasketches-java/issues/527>: Properly use the comparator for sorting level 0 in the KllItemsSketch - A new version of SpotBugs created a number of potential security warnings around Finalizer Attacks. Having done our best to look into the matter, we do not believe sketches are meaningfully vulnerable -- any data in the sketches is already available via reflection and there are no methods with special conditional access. Regardless, we felt that good code hygiene meant that we should prioritize fixing any issues found. 1.
