We have fixed a few bugs and added enhancements since Apache Commons Parent
78 was released, so I would like to release Apache Commons Parent 79.
The most important change is the migration to Doxia 2 which allows
using current Maven plugins.
Apache Commons Parent 79 RC2 is available for review here:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/parent/79-RC2 (svn
revision 73958)
The Git tag commons-parent-79-RC2 commit for this RC is

The 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.
1a) Clone and checkout the RC tag
git clone https://gitbox.apache.org/repos/asf/commons-parent.git --branch
commons-parent-79-RC2 commons-parent-79-RC2
cd commons-parent-79-RC2
1b) Download and unpack the source archive from:
https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/commons/parent/79-RC2/source
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
-the end-
