For the GitHub release itself, I was planning to make these the release
notes:
Apache Grails (incubating) 7.0.0-M4 is the first release for
Grails under the Apache Software Foundation (ASF). This release focuses first
on meeting the requirements of the ASF & improving the developer experience of
Grails itself & Grails Applications. As part of this transition, the
developers moved to a mono repository, reworked the way the various Grails CLIs
work, modernized its build system, modernized the various Grails Gradle Tasks,
modernized the various Grails Gradle Plugins, worked towards reproducible
builds, added license headers to our source code, and changed the maven
coordinates of all Grails Artifacts.

* Rework the grails bom to generate valid Gradle modules, be
easier to maintain, and valid pom files. Enhance the documentation process to
parse the bom & generate the published versions in the grails doc.
And in addition to all of this:
* We changed all coordinates of Grails to be org.apache.grails
based. See https://github.com/apache/grails-core/blob/7.0.x/RENAME.md for how
we mapped these libraries. There is also a script documented in the upgrade
guide to assist in upgrading.
* Significant test fixes
* Significant documentation updates & changes
* Addition of license headers to Grails Source
* Addition of NOTICE to Grails Source
* Created https://repo.grails.org/grails/restricted/ to replace
https://repo.grails.org/grails/core longer term. This virtual repo's scope is
significantly reduced to help reduce the chance of using outdated libraries.
Upgrade instructions are available in the documentation.
