Hi Jonny,
I was subscribed to the geb-dev@ and I thought geb-users@ but I missed
the confirm-sub on that so I didn't see Sergio's new release question
and for some reason also missed your email on geb-dev.
I'm a big fan and user of Geb and would like to help where I can.
I've recently been introducing Geb with Testcontainers for QA at my
employer, inspired by work from Soeren's project
https://github.com/sbglasius/geb-testcontainers.
I'm really glad to see most of my favorite tools like Groovy, and now
Grails and Geb at ASF.
Now I'll work on my email filters :)
Best regards,
Carl

Thanks, James! I will do that. Paul had also offered me some insight
over Slack, so I'm less blocked, just a bit time constrained now. 😅
I'll be in touch.

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.
