I saw a PR to add Dependabot to Lang, I merged it. I had seen similar PRs in the past that I had then ignored. No more. Instead of watching PR after PR come in for each Commons component, I just did it for components that already had GitHub builds. Ideally, I'll add a few GitHub builds for some other components. I'm also thinking of dropping Travis-CI builds in favor of GitHub builds, less to maintain, even though it's not much, and no, I do not plan on bothering with the new Jenkins system at https://ci-builds.apache.org/ because Jenkins has been a pain to deal with (for me) in the past. So we can discuss that as well. Gary > cheers, > Torsten >
