Subject: Apache SIS ${version} RC${candidate} available on staging repository

Apache SIS ${version} RC${candidate} has been deployed on a Maven staging repository for testing purpose. Projects using Apache SIS as a Maven dependency are invited to try the release candidate and report issues on this mailing list. The Maven coordinates are below (using the referencing module as an example):

<dependencies>
  <dependency>
    <groupId>org.apache.sis.core</groupId>
    <artifactId>sis-referencing</artifactId>
    <version>${version}</version>
  </dependency>
</dependencies>
<repositories>
  <repository>
    <id>sis.staging.parent</id>
    <name>SIS staging repository of Parent POM</name>
    <url>https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachesis-${id.staging.parent}</url>
  </repository>
  <repository>
    <id>sis.staging.main</id>
    <name>SIS staging repository of main artifacts</name>
    <url>https://repository.apache.org/content/repositories/orgapachesis-${id.staging}</url>
  </repository>
</repositories>

The version number is ${version} without RC${candidate} suffix because, if the release candidate passes the vote, it will be deployed on the Maven Central repository with no change. More release candidates may be created before the vote thread is started, with a different URL for each candidate. If a previous release candidate has been tested, it may be necessary to delete the previous artifacts. For example (using Unix commands):

rm --recursive ~/.m2/repository/org/apache/sis
