Hi Jonny, I recently went through this with Grails. Are you building Geb all locally? Do you have any interest in setting up github actions to assist in your release? If you do, reach out to me on the Groovy Slack, ASF Slack, or via my email? I have previously offered my help to Paul on what I learned using CI to help perform the release.
