Dear Spring community,

On behalf of the team, it is my pleasure to announce that Spring Integration 6.1.0-M2 is now available from Spring Milestone repository.

In addition bug fixes versions 5.5.17 and 6.0.4 have been released. They also include upgrades to the latest point versions of dependencies with their bug fixes.

The Spring Integration 6.1 version is a natural evolution of 6.x generation with fixes and improvements which didn't make it into 6.0. Plus we listen to community and make some possibly but convenient for target projects breaking changes.

Some highlights of this new version include:

• Upgrades to the latest dependencies, but only if they don't break the public API we expose

• Added Protobuf transformers support (shout out to Christian Tzolov)

• Migration of Zip extension to respective module in the core project

• The MessageFilter now emits a WARN log when a request message is dropped making it, technically, not silent as it was before

• Now gateways and replying handlers don't block forever for sending and receiving operations.

The default timeout in the framework is chosen to be 30 seconds

See What's New in the documentation and don't forget about a Migration Guide.

Following Spring Boot release cadence we are going to have Spring Integration 6.1.0-RC1 in April and then GA in May - just for upcoming Spring Boot 3.1.0. Feel free to contribute whatever you find valuable!

Cheers, 
Artem
