Does anybody need 4.2.4 bugfixing release?

[xvik]

I need to know if there are still people using guicey 4.x (dropwizard 1.3) who require fixes for:

• "An illegal reflective access operation has occurred" using dropwizard-guicey-5.3.0 #170 (configuration analysis)
• ConfigTreeBuilder on 4.2.3 not fully compatible with JDK 17 #180 (configuration analysis)
• [Improvement] Lambda module throws Failed to analyze guice bindings exception #160 (lambda guice modules support)

And maybe #178 (jdk 16 compatibility for jdbi3). This one could be easily fixed manually by updating:

implementation 'ru.vyarus:guice-ext-annotations:1.4.0

But it will bring the recent javassist: not sure if it would be a problem for jersey (which suppose to use the older version). Anyway, you'll need a new javassist in any case if you need to work on recent JDKs (and I know there were successful migrations to jdk17, so probably not a problem).

I'm asking because release for the old branch would require infrastructure updates (to be able to release at all). Not very hard to do but will take time. So if there is no real need for this version I would prefer to not doing it.
