+1 for the release. I just built and tested one of my own projects with the RC and everything seems to work just fine.
Two notes: - I think release candidates should be published with an "rc“ in the version string, something like "5.3.4-rc1“ because otherwise when a second release candidate/the final release becomes available, Maven might stick with the old rc build in the local .m2. - pdfboc has been updated to 2.0.29. in the meantime, pdfbox released the next major release (3.0.0), but I think switching to pdfbox 3 should be more thoroughly tested and would rather be something for POI 5.3 > Am 21.09.2023 um 23:58 schrieb PJ Fanning <fannin...@apache.org>: > > https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/poi/RELEASE-NOTES-5.2.4.txt
