Heads up: Maven 3.8.2 is broken: https://shibboleth.atlassian.net/browse/JPAR-185
Initial details for Spring 6 have been announced: https://spring.io/blog/2021/09/02/a-java-17-and-jakarta-ee-9-baseline-for-spring-framework-6
Short fluffy talk at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=O0-IhAKnkWM covers most of the following
Java 17 baseline, will also support next two LTS after that (Java 23 and 29 in 2024 and 2027 respectively) (Spring 5 will not go beyond Java 17).
Jakarta EE 9 baseline, implying
namespace change from
javaxtojakartaTomcat 10, Jetty 11 baseline
The talks from Spring One (incl. Juergen Hoeller’s deeper dive on Spring 6) will be available 2021-09-07 at SpringOne.
GA 2022 Q4
M1 2021 Q4, i.e., in a couple of months. In principle, we could start a feature branch for Spring 6 at this point, or in general branch for v5. (Hibernate or some other dependency might be a sticking point; beta of next version of Hibernate expected in 2022).

Still chasing up Hibernate
Probably need to make it into a verify plugin.
Sob
See no value in an end user program (“use this jar you downloaded to see if these jars you downloaded are safe”).
Complete the Nashorn Plugin V1.1
Now using JDK
But the GraalVM one also works
Some feedback on MetadataGen. So ready for release

Started building and testing new Rocky 8 server and documenting that under /wiki/spaces/DEV/pages/2780070020
Having issues with the server locking up, still doing A/B testing to pin down the cause

Maven Central
deploying to Central : on hold
working through hosting our repo via Apache rather than Nexus
isolates us from Nexus sec vulns (i.e. how we run Jenkins)
Containerizing Jenkins and Nexus
working through using Docker Compose to run Jenkins/Nexus containers in AWS
