== Review kit
The minimum set of steps needed to review the uploaded distribution
files in the Subversion repository can be summarized as follows:
# Check out the distribution
svn co https://dist.apache.org/repos/... && cd $_
# Verify checksums
shasum --check *.sha512
# Verify signatures
wget -O - https://downloads.apache.org/logging/KEYS | gpg --import
for sigFile in *.asc; do gpg --verify $sigFile; done
# Verify reproduciblity
umask 0022
unzip *-src.zip -d src
cd src
export NEXUS_REPO=https://repository.apache.org/content/...
sh mvnw -Prelease verify artifact:compare -Dreference.repo=$NEXUS_REPO
# If preferred, augment `mvnw` with `-DskipTests` to speed things up
== Release notes
This release contains several small fixes and some dependency updates.
=== Changed
* Improve performance of `CloseableThreadContext#closeMap()` (#2296)
=== Fixed
* Fix handling of `LoggerContextAware` lookups (#2309)
* Fix NPE in `PatternProcessor` for a `UNIX_MILLIS` pattern (#2346)
* Fix that parameterized message formatting doesn't throw an exception
when there are insufficient number of parameters (#2343)
* Fix `StatusLogger` log level filtering when debug mode is enabled (#2337)
* Add `log4j2.StatusLogger.dateFormatZone` system property to set the
time-zone `StatusLogger` uses to format `java.time.Instant`. Without
this, formatting patterns accessing to time-zone-specific fields
(e.g., year-of-era) cause failures. (#2322)
* Fix `StatusLogger` to correctly read
`log4j2.StatusLogger.properties` resource (#2354)
* Fix stack overflow in `StatusLogger` (#2322)
=== Updated
* Update `jakarta.activation:jakarta.activation-api` to version `2.1.3` (#2335)
* Update `jakarta.mail:jakarta.mail-api` to version `2.1.3` (#2348)
* Update `org.apache.commons:commons-compress` to version `1.26.0` (#2304)
* Update `org.apache.commons:commons-dbcp2` to version `2.12.0` (#2344)
* Update `org.apache.kafka:kafka-clients` to version `3.7.0` (#2326)
* Update `org.eclipse.angus:angus-activation` to version `2.0.2` (#2336)
* Update `org.eclipse.angus:jakarta.mail` to version `2.0.3` (#2349)
