Hello Apache Geode Developer Community, Since we are currently just one binding vote away from completing the requirements for the Apache Geode 1.15.3 release, I would like to extend the voting deadline to allow additional time for PMC members to review the release candidate and submit their votes. We want to ensure everyone who wishes to participate has a fair opportunity to do so.
Updated Voting Deadline: 3:00 PM PST, Friday, April 3, 2026 This release includes important security updates and fixes, and your participation is essential to helping us move it forward in a timely and well-governed manner. I would also like to extend a sincere thank-you to Leon and Mark for taking the time to perform thorough reviews and cast their votes. Your efforts are greatly appreciated by the community. If any additional PMC members are able to provide the remaining binding vote, please consider submitting your vote by the updated deadline so we can officially conclude the vote and proceed with the release. Your help in crossing this final milestone would be greatly appreciated.
