Dear Spring community,

Hope you enjoy Spring IO anniversary in Barcelona these days. I'm not there this years for many reasons. Either way, it is my pleasure to announce that Spring Integration 6.1.0 is generally available now from Maven Central.

In addition, bug fixes version 5.5.18 has been released.

The Spring Integration 6.1 version is a natural evolution of 6.x generation with fixes and improvements which didn't make it into 6.0. Plus we listen to community and make some possibly, but convenient for target projects breaking changes.

Some highlights of this new version include:

• Upgrades to the latest dependencies, but only if they don't break the public API we expose

• Added Protobuf transformers support (shout out to Christian Tzolov)

• Migration of Zip extension to respective module in the core project

• The MessageFilter now emits a WARN log when a request message is dropped making it, technically, not silent as it was before

• Now gateways and replying handlers don't block forever for sending and receiving operations.

…

I'm pleased to announce that Spring for GraphQL 1.2.0 is now available on Maven Central. This version will ship with Spring Boot 3.1.0 later this week.

This is a new feature release for the Spring Boot 3.1.x generation. If you are still using Spring for GraphQL 1.0.x, please consider upgrading to Spring Boot 3.x as OSS support will end next November. We have also raised the baseline version for GraphQL Java to 20.x and we will align with the new GraphQL Java release policy from now on.

We have worked on the most popular issues from the community.
