On behalf of the team and everyone that contributed, I am pleased to announce that the first release candidate of Spring Boot 2.3 is available now from our milestone repository.

This release closes over 70 issues and pull requests. Thanks to all those who have contributed.

Highlights of this milestone include:

• Auto-configuration of a Wavefront sender bean.
• Easier configuration of the data/time converts used by web applications.
• Automatic creation of the developmentOnly configuration in Gradle.

The 2.5.0.RC1 release candidate is now avaialable in the Spring milestone repo.

Update: 2.5.0.RELEASE was released on May 13th.

Highlights:

• kafka-clients 2.5.0 (alignment of version numbers is coincidental).

• Support for re-committing retryable offset commit exceptions for retained partitions when using cooperative rebalancing.

• Support for the new "fetch-offset-request" procuder fencing (when brokers are 2.5 or higher), requiring fewer producers.

• Support for static group membership.

• More integration with Micrometer.

• Optional Delivery Attempts header.

• RecoveringBatchErrorHandler can commit a partial batch and replay from failed record in a batch (with cooperation of the listener); this is now the default for a batch listener.

I’m pleased to announce the first (and the last) release candidate for Spring Integration 5.3.

This release ships several bug fixes, a bunch of new features and improvements and will be picked up by Spring Boot 2.3 RC1.

It can be downloaded from our milestone repository:

compile 'org.springframework.integration:spring-integration-core:5.3.0.RC1'

The most important new features are:

• The MongoDbChangeStreamMessageProducer - a reactive MessageProducerSupport implementation for the Spring Data ReactiveMongoOperations.changeStream(String, ChangeStreamOptions, Class) API. This component produces a Flux of messages with a body of ChangeStreamEvent as the payload by default and some change stream related headers (see MongoHeaders).

• The ReactiveMessageSourceProducer - a reactive implementation of the MessageProducerSupport to wrap a provided MessageSource into a Flux for on demand receive() calls.

• The ReceiveMessageAdvice - a former AbstractMessageSourceAdvice is graduated now to more common advice approach which can be used also for the PollableChannel.receive() proxying.

On behalf of the team, I'm pleased to announce Spring Data releases Neumann RC2, Moore SR7, and Lovelace SR17. This triple-feature is built on top of today's Spring Framework releases 5.2.6 (Neumann and Moore) and 5.1.15 (Lovelace).

Spring Data Neumann RC2 contains 96 new features, improvements, and fixes. Spring Data Moore SR7 ships with 40 fixes and improvements. Finally, Spring Data Lovelace SR17 includes 39 selected fixes.

Spring Data Neumann RC2 ships with numerous improvements and new features. The most interesting amongst these are:

• Query Derivation for Spring Data JDBC.
• Refinements in the reactive resource lookup for Spring Data Cassandra and Spring Data MongoDB, introducing a deferred lookup for Session with a MongoDatabase that allows for routing implementations that use the Subscriber Context.
• Embedded Types in Spring Data Cassandra
• Additional Entity Callbacks in Spring Data Elasticsearch
…

On behalf of the team and everyone who has contributed, I am pleased to announce a full round of Spring Framework releases.
