[VOTE] Release Apache Cassandra Java Driver 4.18.1 (2nd attempt)

[Bret McGuire]

   Greetings all!  We're going to give this another go.

   Apologies for the confusion that sprang out of our last attempt.  It
appears that the Nexus staging repository for the 4.18.1 release was
accidentally released shortly after it was created.  As a result Maven
artifacts for this release are already out in the wild
,
so this vote will be a little unusual.  We'll be voting normally, but if
the vote is successful we'll simply leave the Maven artifacts exactly where
they are.  If the vote is unsuccessful these artifacts will be removed from
Maven Central and we'll try again with 4.18.2.

   Big thanks to mck and driftx for their help in untangling these issues.

   With all of that said let's get to it.  I’m proposing the test build of
Cassandra Java Driver 4.18.1 for release.

sha1: cbdde2878786fa6c4077a21352cbe738875f2106

Git:  
https://github.com/apache/cassandra-java-driver/tree/4.18.1

Maven Artifacts:
As
discussed above


   The Source release and Binary convenience artifacts are available here:

https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/cassandra/cassandra-java-driver/4.18.1/


   The vote will be open for 72 hours (longer if needed). Everyone who has
tested the build is invited to vote. Votes by PMC members are considered
binding. A vote passes if there are at least three binding +1s and no -1's.

   One additional note: this is my first time doing a release of the Java
driver so if you're so inclined you can find my PGP key information in the
KEYS  file.


   Thanks all!

Looks good!   Also sanity checked diffs between the 4.18.0 / 4.18.1
source tars and the deltas lined up with the changes.   With the
artifacts already in nexus I tried pulling them down with a gradle
project and did a little sanity test and it worked great.

Thanks,
Andy
