In the absence of a working CITE build on the server I’m going to make the release based on the last working builds(15th July) , which look like:
GeoTools de3740d2f13f958c7d6c9c42995ce61258d0b892 https://build.geoserver.org/job/geotools-20.x/421/
GWC efac6ce01fed5cb845cecbb34765da1c8ffd5213 https://build.geoserver.org/view/geoserver/job/geowebcache-1.14.x/181/
GeoServer 7cdc9230711781e95a9509f44660bfcffc0e3242 https://build.geoserver.org/view/geoserver/job/geoserver-2.14.x/608/
