On behalf of the team, it is my pleasure to announce that Spring Framework 5.1.3, 5.0.11 and 4.3.21 are available now.

The third maintenance release of the 5.1 line includes over 45 fixes and improvements. Spring Framework 5.0.11 also includes a wide range of 34 fixes and improvements while Spring Framework 4.3.21 is, as expected, a rather minimal patch release.

The first maintenance candidate of Spring Boot 2.1, based on Spring Framework 5.1.3, is around the corner. We'll also follow up with corresponding Spring Boot 2.0.7 and 1.5.18 releases later this week.
