Just to follow up on this: I've filed GEODE-8335
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/GEODE-8335) to track, respectfully
(cowardly __ ) deferring to individuals who regularly contribute to the various
Geode repos to handle it as they see fit. I'll take care of the several Geode
Native associated repos.
Thanks,
Blake

NB: Mark, I think the 3-vote convention is just for back-ports to the
