Hello, we have fixed quite a few bugs and added some nice new features since Commons Lang 3.5 was released, so I would like to release Commons Lang 3.6 based on RC2. The reason we had to cut a second release is, that there were some discussions around the annotations for documenting concurrency properties in the o.a.c.l.concurrent.annotation package. I’ve removed those annotations, so that we can fix them after the release.
Commons Lang 3.6 R2 is available for review here: https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/lang (svn revision 19714) The tag is here: https://git-wip-us.apache.org/repos/asf?p=commons-lang.git;a=tag;h=75c28fc4678774c1d2c21b839b048db6b563b9ae Commit ID the tag points at: 3a64cf6aff408a9cbdcb4d7456360a97d1a880f0 Maven Artifacts: https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247 These are the Maven artifacts and their hashes: /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-javadoc.jar <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-javadoc.jar> (SHA1: eb05c235b85ffb6f70ea72082eb904a9fe1969d7) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-sources.jar.asc <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-sources.jar.asc> (SHA1: 7b98c8ab56e16e974c85963b2497840405a3375e) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.pom.asc <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.pom.asc> (SHA1: 7524211600afb0deb3a5cab8ad9236299e3434a4) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.pom <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.pom> (SHA1: b38df078df7623b708cd439b1cb750619bd659cc) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.jar.asc <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.jar.asc> (SHA1: 4bf4d61116adcf699f1d7a866bcabcb50fc7b47f) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-javadoc.jar.asc <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-javadoc.jar.asc> (SHA1: d547ce41d41f38b143f5e5377d6bc990f0abbff6) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-sources.jar <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-sources.jar> (SHA1: d9c5bbfb0b97c1f87e3f75cedd7eedbc5ec81182) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.jar <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6.jar> (SHA1: e6e1ca5e4574da2af0f8d2891410857e36ce5969) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-tests.jar.asc <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-tests.jar.asc> (SHA1: b8d25f4a01a5f50ab450044dd2a7688e37554bed) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-test-sources.jar.asc <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-test-sources.jar.asc> (SHA1: ccca81cd4539437f3def2644119a6f187168963c) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-test-sources.jar <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-test-sources.jar> (SHA1: 8daf4979fb38811bd4a5bf39e38bc7a3a6582104) /org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-tests.jar <https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachecommons-1247/org/apache/commons/commons-lang3/3.6/commons-lang3-3.6-tests.jar> (SHA1: 1f158e950250efab7cbca635e8393ab2ef666bca) I have tested this with JDK 7, JDK 8 and JDK 9 EA b165 using Maven 3.5.0.
