[ ] +1, release the artifacts
[ ] -1, don't release, because...

This vote is open until 2024-03-22 12:30 (CET) and will pass unless
getting a net negative vote count. All votes are welcome and we
encourage everyone to test the release, but only the Logging
Services PMC votes are officially counted. At least 3 +1 votes and
more positive than negative votes are required.

=== Timing & Differences

I will keep this vote open until 2024-03-22 12:30 (CET), that is, the
official end date of the RC2, since RC3 contains a minor difference:

=== 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 delivers the first version of Log4j Docgen (Documentation
Generator).
It is a set of tools to auto-generate the Log4j plugin documentation (to be
integrated into the website) and the Log4j configuration XSD file (for
assisting the configuration of the Log4j runtime, i.e., `log4j2.xml`) from
the Log4j source code. See the project website for details.

==== Added

* Add the `log4j-docgen` et al. containing a universal XML model to
document Log4j plugins

==== Changed

* Move Log4j Changelog XML namespace and schema location to `
https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns` and `
https://logging.apache.org/xml/ns/log4j-changelog-0.xsd`, respectively

==== Removed

* Remove `author` from Log4j Changelog. It was yet another bit to maintain
and created role-related (who did what) problems. Many modern software
projects use a VCS (e.g., Git) and support services (e.g., GitHub) which
make it trivial to trace back the origin of a change using commit and issue
IDs.

==== Updated

* Update `org.apache.logging:logging-parent` to version `10.6.0`
* Update `jakarta.inject:jakarta.inject-api` to version `2.0.1` (#94)
* Update `org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-core` to version `2.23.1` (#108)
* Update `org.apache.logging.log4j:log4j-plugins` to version `3.0.0-beta2`
(#107)
* Update `org.apache.maven.plugin-tools:maven-plugin-annotations` to
version `3.11.0` (#98)
* Update `org.assertj:assertj-core` to version `3.25.3` (#104)
* Update `org.codehaus.modello:modello-maven-plugin` to version `2.3.0`
(#105)
* Update `org.junit:junit-bom` to version `5.10.2` (#103)
