Hey Kojiro Nabeta,
A milestone 2 for Grails 8 will be released very soon. There has been a
massive amount of work on Hibernate 7.4 and Groovy 5 ongoing.
You can begin working on the Grails 8 upgrade now using 8.0.0-SNAPSHOT
or wait a few days for 8.0.0-M2. I am upgrade a few of my apps with the
snapshot now.
https://grails.apache.org/docs/snapshot/ has 8 docs
There will be another set of Grails 7.x.x releases this week which have
the final updates from Spring boot and it is possible there will be 1-2
more after that, as several PRs are open.
Timeline for the 8.0.0 GA is likely 4-6 weeks, if I were to guess. But
as I have dove deep into Grails development over the last two years, you
can easily start working from milestones and add snapshots on occasion
to work on preparing for new versions.
