We have fixed quite a few bugs and added some significant enhancements
since Apache Commons Configuration 2.7 was released, so I would like
to release Apache Commons Configuration 2.8.
Apache Commons Configuration 2.8 RC1 is available for review here:

I have tested this with 'mvn clean install site' using:
***
Apache Maven 3.8.4 (9b656c72d54e5bacbed989b64718c159fe39b537)

Details of changes since 2.7 are in the release notes:

Site:

(note some *relative* links are broken and the 2.8 directories are
not yet created - these will be OK once the site is deployed.)

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-configuration.git
--branch commons-configuration-2.8-RC1 commons-configuration-2.8-RC1
cd commons-configuration-2.8-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
