Thanks Mark for getting 1.11.0 shipped & sending out this reminder! Anthony and I will volunteer this time around.
Bumping dependencies helps ensure Geode is using the most secure and reliable libraries, but nevertheless, this type of change can sometimes have unobvious side-effects that take some time to uncover. With only a month left before we are scheduled to cut our release/1.12 branch, we already need to start thinking about stabilizing develop. We have split the updates into two PRs for now: “Easy" ones: #4537 <https://github.com/apache/geode/pull/4537> Trickier ones: #4542 <https://github.com/apache/geode/pull/4542> Some PR checks are still failing on the 2nd PR. Any review comments are appreciated. Hopefully we can get one or both merged soon. > On Jan 3, 2020, at 11:01 AM, Mark Hanson <mhan...@pivotal.io> wrote: > > Hello Apache Geode Community, > > It is time to update the 3rd-party libraries used by GEODE.
