> approach the Apache Software Foundation That is exactly what I am doing. > How does "unpaid volunteer" sound? ;-) @garydgregory , I am a committer and a PMC member on Apache Calcite and Apache JMeter. That is why I truly do not understand why it is that hard to roll 1.2.18 out. I know there's "dist.apache.org, voting, site update, announce, etc" overheads. I understand why do you want to stop bugfixes and features for 1.x branch, however, I believe this case is special, and it does not really take significant effort to remove several `.java` files. Do you suggest log4j PMC should be paid $5000 for each +1 vote regarding 1.2.18? I can prepare PR for the removal of the offending classes. That is a non-issue. However, only log4j PMCs can vote and make the release happen. Of course, I can fork log4j and publish it under new groupid:artifactid coordinates, however, it would look really weird, and Dependabot won't know that my log4j is a solution to the known issues. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
