On behalf of the Spring Data team, I'd like to announce the availability of the Ingalls SR12 and Kay SR7 service releases. Both releases pick up the just-released Spring Framework versions 4.3.17 and 5.0.6, respectively. The upcoming Spring Boot 1.5.13 will pick up Ingalls SR12, and Spring Boot 2.0.2 picks up Kay SR7 for your convenience.

Both releases ship with over 100 tickets fixed in total and are recommended upgrades to all users of the Ingalls and Kay release trains. You can find all the details within the linked changelogs.

Hi Spring fans! Welcome to another incredible installment of all that's fit to tweet, blog, record and print about Spring! It's been an insane week! Since our last installment I was in Paris, FR, for the epic Devoxx FR conference where I spoke at a meetup hosted by ZenikaIT, gave a workshop on Reactive Cloud Native Java and co-presented a talk on Reactive Spring with the one-and-only Juergen Hoeller.
