We have fixed quite a few bugs and added some significant enhancements
since Apache Commons BCEL 6.3.1 was released, so I would like to release
Apache Commons BCEL 6.4.0.
Apache Commons BCEL 6.4.0 RC1 is available for review here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/bcel/6.4.0-RC1 (svn
revision 35703)

Details of changes since 6.3.1 are in the release notes:

Site:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/bcel/6.4.0-RC1/site/index.html
(note some *relative* links are broken and the 6.4.0 directories are
not yet created - these will be OK once the site is deployed.)
CLIRR Report (compared to 6.3.1):
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/bcel/6.4.0-RC1/site/clirr-report.html
CLIRR does not know about using Java 8 default methods to provide backward
binary compatibility for new methods, so you can ignore errors here.
JApiCmp Report (compared to 6.3.1):
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/bcel/6.4.0-RC1/site/japicmp.html

For following is intended as a helper and refresher for reviewers.
Validating a release candidate
==============================
These guidelines are NOT complete.
Requirements: Git, Java, Maven.
You can validate a release from a release candidate (RC) tag as follows.
1) Clone and checkout the RC tag
git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-bcel.git --branch
commons-bcel-6.4.0-RC1 commons-bcel-6.4.0-RC1
cd commons-bcel-6.4.0-RC1
2) Check Apache licenses
This step is not required if the site includes a RAT report page which you
then must check.
mvn apache-rat:check
3) Check binary compatibility
Older components still use Apache Clirr:
This step is not required if the site includes a Clirr report page which
you then must check.
mvn clirr:check
Newer components use JApiCmp with the japicmp Maven Profile:
This step is not required if the site includes a JApiCmp report page which
you then must check.
mvn install -DskipTests -P japicmp japicmp:cmp
4) Build the package
mvn -V clean package
You can record the Maven and Java version produced by -V in your VOTE reply.
To gather OS information from a command line:
Windows: ver
Linux: uname -a
5) Build the site for a single module project
Note: Some plugins require the components to be installed instead of
packaged.
mvn site
Check the site reports in:
- Windows: target\site\index.html
- Linux: target/site/index.html
6) Build the site for a multi-module project
mvn site
mvn site:stage
Check the site reports in:
- Windows: target\site\index.html
- Linux: target/site/index.html
-the end-
