On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce a new milestone for the next Spring Framework generation. The M6 continues delivering new features and refinements on top of 7.0.0-M1, 7.0.0-M2, 7.0.0-M3, 7.0.0-M4 and 7.0.0-M5.

We've made lots of refinements on features delivered in previous milestones, but we also have a new feature that we would like to share.

Retry support in Spring Core

We have been working on the Spring Retry project for a very long time. The Spring team decided that it was time to trim unnecessary features, revisit some of its API and merge the resulting work into the "spring-core" module of Spring Framework. This new Retry support is located in the org.springframework.core.retry package, we will update the reference documentation soon.

In the meantime, Spring projects like Spring Batch are already working on using this in place of spring-retry.

And much more!

As usual, you can check the detailed changelog for more details and read the global 7.0 release notes for upgrade concerns.

7.0.0-M6 is now available from https://repo.spring.io and Maven Central.
