Release updates / issues
- 24.6.0 in burn-in phase for release
- Besu-Native (Gary and Matt Whitehead on action items)
  - Some workarounds for current issues with release and local build.
  - How does this supply chain work so vendors and users can reliably build from specific commits against Besu-Native versions?
    - Checks in the artifacts? Maven/JFrog/GHA?
    - Need to review the code for verification of native in Besu-Main.
  - Besu-Native should now automatically derive a CalVer release from when it was built to avoid the overwrite problem of previous versions.
    - Should target the same changes to release updates / GHA.
    - Gradle properties file needs to be manually up-revved when a new version is being cut.
    - Gary to take point on this.
  - Maven should stop a version being released.
