Hi An update about 1.4.0 release: - LICENSE/NOTICE have been fixed on the Spark plugin - We have a plan about the CLI for the 1.4.0 release - I checked Spark plugin build and it looks compliant with reproducible build to me (since ShadowJar extends AbstractArchiveTask, the createPolarisSparkJar bundle JAR also inherits these settings automatically, meaning both the regular JAR and the shadow/bundle JAR should be reproducible).
I think we are good to go with the release. Anything missing for the 1.4.0 release ?
