Hi,
sorry I haven’t seen your message before (it was not sorted into my Lucene mails). I committed a compile-failure fix into branch_8x and branch_8_8 a while ago, which was marked as blocker (Lucene and Solr failed to compile with Java 17 because of some Javadoc options leading to failures). See more details here: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/LUCENE-9912 I would not stop the release now, so here’s my +/-0 But if we respin, please include those 2 commits (disabling javadocs options and fixing the javadocs). If not we have to change the FIX version numbers in JIRA!
