[log4j] Moving JMX GUI to its own repo

2023-09-08 Thread Volkan Yazıcı
I have created a dedicated repository for the `log4j-jmx-gui` module:
`logging-log4j-jmx-gui`
.

   - Git history is preserved
   - Compiler is upgraded to Java 17 (still targeting Java 8)
   - `README.adoc` created
   - Docs are moved to `doc/manual.adoc`
   - `log4j-changelog` integration added
   - `pom.xml` is revamped

The complete list of changes can be found by comparing the `HEAD` against
ae00f014

.

*I will release this (in a separate VOTE thread) as version `0.21.0` and
remove the module from `logging-log4j2` repository.* Thoughts? Objections?

Note that this is *not* an attempt to move to multi-repo!

- Fixed plugin definitions

# RC1..RC2 changes

RC2 introduces following changes over RC1[2]:

- Set version to `10.0.0` (requested by Matt & Ralph)
- Fix SVN path in `generate-email.sh` (requested by Gary)
- Split the distribution into `src` and `bin` parts (requested by Gary)
- Automate `revision` property update in `pom.xml` in CI (requested by Ralph)
- Automate changelog release in CI (requested by Ralph)

# Remarks

- `logging-parent` doesn't contain any binary artifacts, it is a
  `pom.xml` with some reusable CI workflow YAMLs.
- One can reproduce the very same distribution by checking
  out the commit and running
  `./mvnw -P distribution -DattachmentCount=0 -DattachmentFilepathPattern=x`

# Release Notes

This minor release contains various improvements that we expect to
relieve the load on `pom.xml` and GitHub Actions workflows of
Maven-based projects we parent. This is of particular importance while
managing and cutting releases from multiple repositories.
See `README.adoc` for the complete list of features and their usage.

See this[3] `log4j-tools` GitHub Actions workflow run demonstrating a
successful release cut using a SNAPSHOT version of this
`logging-parent` release. All preparations (release notes, source and
binary distributions, vote & announcement emails, etc.) are staged to
both Nexus and SVN and waiting the release manager to proceed.

## Changes

### Added

* Added `changelog-export` profile to easily export changelogs to Markdown files
* Added `changelog-release` profile to easily move
`src/changelog/.?.x.x` contents to their associated release directory
* Added `deploy` profile to ease the Maven `deploy` goal
* Added `distribution` profile to easily create a distribution file
containing Git-tracked sources, release notes, binary attachments,
`NOTICE.txt`, etc.
* Documented release instructions (i.e., `RELEASING.md`)
* Added `release` profile to share common release-specific Maven configuration
* Added reusable GitHub Actions workflows to share CI boilerplate for
other repositories
* Switched to using `log4j-changelog-maven-plugin` for managing
changelog and release notes

### Changed

* Switched to semantic versioning (old version: `9`, new version: `10.0.0`)


Next 2.x release?

2023-09-08 Thread Gary Gregory
Hi all,

I am curious: Are we planning for another 2.x release soon?

Sure, it would be about time. I have compiled a list of small issues
and PRs that I believe could make it into 2.20.1:

https://github.com/apache/logging-log4j2/milestone/4

In JIRA I didn't check **at all**, so maybe there is something there too.

I am a little swamped at my dayjob right now ;-), but I'll merge my
PRs this weekend. Feel free to pick up the other ones or to move them
to a later release.

Remark that I just added issue #1780 [1] that would culminate with a
release using the tools Volkan is working on right now. It's ETA is
beginning of October and will allow **any** PMC to perform a Log4j
release, even those like me that have never done it before.

Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Logging Parent 10.0.0 (RC3)

2023-09-08 Thread Volkan Yazıcı
I'm sorry to say that I need to cancel RC3 too... Multiple
`maven-flatten-plugin` executions need to form a magical constellation
in the Maven milkyway to resolve `revision` and BOM modules properly.
Good news is, together with Piotr, we have found a workaround and I
will issue RC4 promptly.

The distribution archive is identical to the Git repo. I also verified
the generated Maven artifact for reproducibility:
+1
