There is one thing I was hoping to do before the GA release, which is to build support for the Apache 5 client as an HTTP backend for the AWS Java SDK V2 (which supports pluggable HTTP clients) and run their full suite of integration tests. Unfortunately, the time leading up to re:Invent is extremely busy around here, so I don't think the timing works out if we want to get 5.0 GA out this year. This is fine, I can always perform this testing later, there's just a higher risk of a compatibility issue (particularly between core and client) preventing any newly discovered bugs from being fixed.
Since the SDK is open source [1], in principle any contributor could perform this task and run whatever integration tests are open source. (I don't currently know whether we have additional test coverage that is unpublished.)
