Re: [VOTE] Release Apache Groovy 5.0.3

Hi All,

+1

I'm using MacOS Sequoia 15.7.1 on M2 Chip...

For the source I checked:

* sha256 checksum

* valid signature

* NOTICE and LICENSE files present.

* Opened as project in IntelliJ 2025.2

* checked licenses with: gradlew rat

* built from source and ran tests.

For the 3 distribution zip files I checked:

* sha256 checksum

* valid signature

I manually tested groovyConsole and ran some scripts.

I had some issues with 3 tests in SwingBuilderConsoleTest that I'm 
looking into.

Since this is the first time I've built and tested Groovy it's more than 
likely my environment somehow.

Best regards,

Carl
