If no issue is reported, the content of above staging repositories will be moved as-is (no recompilation) to Apache mirrors and Maven Central repository when the release will happen. If blocking issues are reported, a new staging repository at a new URL will be created for another release candidate. Some tips to validate the release before you vote:

• For reference, the Apache release guide — https://www.apache.org/legal/release-policy.html
• Download the source files from compressed files and build (requires Gradle 8.8).
• Verify the distribution for the required LICENSE and NOTICE files.
• Verify if all the staged files are signed and the signature is verifiable.
• Verify if the signing key in the project's KEYS file is hosted on a public server.
• Download the binary version and run some examples described in https://sis.staged.apache.org/command-line.html. For running with EPSG data, execute the following command first:

export JDK_JAVA_OPTIONS="-Dorg.apache.sis.epsg.downloadURL=https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachesis-1062"

Thanks for your time in validating the release and voting.
