+* We have had to suppress CVE-2017-10355, related to the transitive dependency xercesImpl-2.12.2.jar via antisamy-1.7.0.jar. It is the same jar that has been used for the past 2 years but the CVE just started popping up now, apparently because of changes to Sonatype's OSS Index. More details are available in the OWASP Dependency Check suppression rules contained in the 'suppressions.xml' file. Note that other SCA tools such as Snyk or GitHub Dependabot are not presently reporting it, but it bears watching.
+
+* Trying to run 'mvn test' with Java 11 or later results in multiple errors in maven-surefire-plugin, so for now, that should be avoided. We think we may have a solution, but at this point, it is too late to test for this release.

+#           - Some commits are done without PRs. Generally, we don't require PRs when we don't require code reviews. That generally is restricted to documenation files, making simple config file changes, and correcting obvious typos. Commits without PRs are resricted to the 3 ESAPI core team members.
+#           - Sometimes in a PR, multiple commits touch a file multiple times so we count those files once for each commit.
