Greetings all!
With four +1 votes (three binding) and zero -1 votes the vote passes.
Thanks to everyone who voted! I'm just a bit behind so I'm guessing
the release process (including distribution of artifacts to Maven Central)
won't be completed until sometime tomorrow (Wednesday, 14 October 2026).
