On behalf of the team and everyone who contributed, I am pleased to announce the First (and hopefully last) Release Candidate of Spring Integration 7.0.0 generation. For convenience, the 7.0.0-RC1 artifacts are also available in Maven Central.

In addition, the 6.5.3 and 6.4.8 versions with bug fixes and dependency upgrades have been released.

Some notable changes in 7.0.0-RC1 are:

• Channel Adapters for AMQP 1.0 based on Spring AMQP 4.0;
• The directory to scan in the FileReadingMessageSource can now be configured as an expression to be evaluated at runtime on each scan call;
• The MESSAGE_BYTES SQL column for message store tables has been renamed to the MESSAGE_CONTENT as with some implementation the message serialization is not always byte array;
• All the Spring Integration modules now follow the standard package structure: components has been moved to input or output packages according to their purpose;
• The ScatterGatherHandler now fully support async mode emiting a Mono for reply processing.

See What's New in 7.0 for more details.

Also a Migration Guide contains some breaking changes in this new version.

This is the last chance to reach us out in GitHub issues for the project with any feedback before we go GA in November.

Cheers, 
Artem
