When I asked about the release timeline, I was enquiring whether Maven also has release management documentation like the way some other apache projects Flink or Kafka do. I was not able to find it for maven 4.
Anyways thanks, Marteen for the references. https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/FLINK/2.0+Release https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/KAFKA/Release+Plan+3.7.0 On Tue, Dec 19, 2023 at 9:53 PM <mark.yagnatin...@barclays.com.invalid> wrote: > Thank you!
