On behalf of the Spring Data team I’m delighted to announce the second milestone of the 2020.0.0 release train (codename "Ockham"). This release ships almost 120 tickets fixed! The most important new features are:

• Support for reactive SpEL context extensions.
• Support for reactive auditing in Cassandra, Elasticsearch, MongoDB, and R2DBC.
• Integration of Spring Data Neo4j 6.0, which is a rewrite of the module without relying on Neo4j OGM.
• Refactoring of Spring Data R2DBC on top of Spring Framework's R2DBC module.
• Oracle dialect for Spring Data JDBC.

Find a curated changelog in our release train wiki or skim through a full list of changes in JIRA. Next up is 2020.0.0-RC1 planned for mid-September that will ship refinements for Redis 6. The GA release is scheduled mid-October.
