Hello all

Apache SIS 1.5 RC2 has been deployed on a Maven staging repository for testing purpose. Changes compared to RC1 are:

 * Compiled the non-free EPSG dataset for Java 11 (in RC1, there were
   accidentally compiled for a more recent version).
 * Fixed remaining issues for allowing JUnit tests to pass with EPSG 12.
 * Upgraded WKT 2 parsing and formatting to ISO 19162:2019.

Projects using Apache SIS as a Maven dependency are invited to try the release candidate and report issues on this mailing list. The Maven coordinates are below (using the referencing module as an example):

   <dependencies>
      <dependency>
        <groupId>org.apache.sis.core</groupId>
        <artifactId>sis-referencing</artifactId>
        <version>1.5</version>
      </dependency>
   </dependencies>
   <repositories>
      <repository>
        <id>sis.staging.parent</id>
        <name>SIS staging repository of Parent POM</name>
        
<url>https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachesis-1059</url>
      </repository>
      <repository>
        <id>sis.staging.main</id>
        <name>SIS staging repository of main artifacts</name>
        
<url>https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachesis-1056</url>
      </repository>
   </repositories>

The version number is 1.5 without RC2 suffix because, if the release candidate passes the vote, it will be deployed on the Maven Central repository with no change. More release candidates may be created before the vote thread is started, with a different URL for each candidate. If the previous release candidate RC1 has been tested, it may be necessary to delete the previous artifacts. For example (using Unix commands):

   rm --recursive ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/sis

RC2 is feature complete. An RC3 will probably be done, but all the work between RC2 and RC3 is expected to be only bug fixes.
