That's your prerogative, of course, but Peter doesn't necessarily
represent his company nor the other way round.
Peter, any committer can call for a release of any version/branch
of any
project at any time. You can help by providing (non-binding) voting
feedback for any release proposed. If this community has a cold
attitude
toward your employer, you can suggest to your employer that they
attempt
to reach-out to this community in order to repair that relationship.
Hi Oleg, I was really caught off guard by your assertion and am sorry
you
feel that way. I'm one of the co-founders and CTO at Sonatype and I
can't
ever recall a time where anyone was hostile towards http client.
I am still actively involved at Apache, through the Maven PMC,
Creadur and
RAT PMCs and at Infra. We have many other developers who are
contributors
and PMC members of various Apache projects. Sonatype the company
sponsors
Apache through Infra donations and still provides the Central
repository
for everyone to use. We've also helped report vulnerabilities that are
uncovered in our research and our CSO even fixed a Xalan vulnerability
since there were no devs left on the project.
In short, I believe Sonatype and our developers have a healthy and
happy
relationship with Apache in general. If you believe otherwise, I'd be
happy
to chat with you off list to understand your concerns.
Hi Brian
I have no concerns of what so ever. All is well. It is amazing how
quickly things get forgotten, though.
HC 4.5.4 release is in progress.
Oleg
