+1 to release.

Reproducibility of the build checked (including the Windows installer) 
using "ant verify-release" on Linux Mint 22.3. OK after setting LANG.

Original Windows installer signature verified with osslsigncode 2.10.

Unit tests ran on platforms

- RHEL 8, 9 and 10 and SLES 15

using

- recent patch versions of JDK 17, 21, 25, 26 and 27+28 (EA)

from

- Eclipse Adoptium, Azul Zulu, Amazon Coretto, Oracle, RedHat and from 
OpenJDK for 27

where available.

Also tested with

- tcnative 2.0.15 and panama

based on

- OpenSSL 3.5.7, 3.6.3 and 4.0.1

Each combination of platform, JVM and JSSE or tcnative or panama only 
tested for NIO or NIO2 (randomized). Total number of test combinations:

      42 nio2 jsse
      65 nio2 panama
     119 nio2 tcnative
      39 nio jsse
      64 nio panama
     124 nio tcnative

Test observations:

   - IMHO nothing critical

   - in addition
     - very few crashes with tcnative (1 in 243 runs)
     - no crash failures with panama (129 runs)
     - very few non-crash failures with jsse (1 in 81 runs)
     - no non-crash failures with tcnative (243 runs)
     - no non-crash failures with panama (129 runs)

Thanks for RM!
