Description
Currently the main branch is not protected, so users with write access can directly push to main and v1. We could enforce to have PRs always (what we anyway do now), but the release action would not be able to do pom.xml version updates directly neither. This is one issue to solve / discuss.
The other part to discuss below this issue is it would be an idea to force approvals from code owners, since this is relatively small team it would not be convenient (think holidays), but with 1 required code owner approval for all PRs could work.
