I am pretty sure this needs more work than just bumping the version.

Yes this is also my assumption. However to my surprise compilation did not fail for me and I was not able to run tests (I followed the manual on building), there must be a problem with my environment. So, I opened a draft request to see what checks will fail. I hope this is not much trouble?

Not sure what you did locally, but just changing the version number will definitely not work, because Ehcache 3 is hosted under a different groupId than Ehcache 2 (org.ehcache vs net.sf.ehcache), see https://www.ehcache.org/ ("Ehcache 3 Quick Start" vs "Ehcache 2.x Quick Start") and https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/net/sf/ehcache/ehcache/ vs https://repo1.maven.org/maven2/org/ehcache/ehcache/

You can keep it open as draft an push every now and then to validate your changes. However if you don't plan to work on it or give up at some point you probably want to close it.
