For all users building hypermedia based API, I’d like to announce that we shipped Spring HATEOAS 1.3 M2. We ship two major themes with the release:

• Revised support for HAL-FORMS and most of the additional property attributes derived from types or JSR-303 annotations. For details checkout the revamped section of the references docs or a more complete example.

• We significantly revamped the way we register the media type conversion within the WebMVC infrastructure. This is a response to challenges in selecting the best media type to render in certain Accept header edge conditions. This change should be a non-issue but it would be great if you could test the new setup for a spin and report any glitches you potentially encounter.

• Custom Buildpack Builder Support
