Less than 2 months after the initial announcement of Spring GraphQL and its follow up intro blog, I'm happy to announce that the 1.0.0-M2 version has been released and is available from the Spring Milestone repository.

The Spring GraphQL team would like to thank the early adopters and contributors - with your help, we're making good progress towards a GA version!

Do not miss this! I'll be there!

I get so excited in the leadup to SpringOne each year, and this year doubly so! First, there's the usual monumental scope of the whole thing, which always gets me. I also just got my first (of hopefully many) negative COVID-19 tests a few days ago, after three weeks of convalescence. Huzzah!
