Hi, I've prepared artifacts for the release of Apache POI 3.15-beta1 (RC1). The tag is based on r1737618 (04.04.2016) and doesn't contain commits after that - only the changed license file.
The most notable changes in this release are: - removal of deprecated elements (#59170) - avoid XmlBeans calls to piccolo parser which caused OOM in rare cases (#57031) - support for passwords longer than 15 chars for write-protection or binary formats (#59135) - various NPE fixes in XSSF/HSSF - fixes for color handling in XSSF and support for system colors in Common SL https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/poi/3.15-beta1-RC1 What to look for? - check the license file - I've added most of our dependencies - check the bin/src archives - the packaging was changed for the nexus upload and so I had to change the assembly step - maybe run another commoncrawl test - any other notable changes to mention ... I haven't dared to list the merge-region change again ... :) Please vote to release the artifacts - after the vote, I'll adapt the release notes with the above. The vote keeps open for 72hrs, 2016-04-11, 23:59 UTC, planned release announcement date is Wednesday, 2015-04-13.
