I have 4 events this week, including the St Louis JUG
https://www.meetup.com/gatewayjug/events/314881147/, plus many other
project commitments, so my time to work on RC1 items will be very
limited through next Monday.
I will be on the call on Wednesday and will submit the Apache Grails
board report that morning.
If we don't have everything we want in RC1 on Sunday, I would be fine
with a M6. Either way is fine.
https://github.com/orgs/apache/projects/487/views/2?sliceBy%5Bvalue%5D=grails%3A8.0.0-RC1
is fairly updated and pruned
I would love to see the following in RC1:
Add opt-in deny-by-default data binding and always honor bindable:false
- I've completed several rounds of updates, if it still needs a little
more polish please push to the PR so it can be merged
https://github.com/apache/grails-core/pull/15947
Clear omitted bindData fields when nullMissing is enabled - I've
completed several rounds of updates, if it still needs a little more
polish please push to the PR so it can be merged
https://github.com/apache/grails-core/pull/15950
Add opt-in legacy Holder shim for early plugin registration- adds some
Grails 7 plugin compatibility in Grails 8 - I flipped this to opt-in,
IMO provide backwards compatibility, esp for plugins is a positive
https://github.com/apache/grails-core/pull/16101
Configure generated applications for component scanning - this was
waiting on some stuff we already cleaned up for Grails 8
https://github.com/apache/grails-core/pull/16111
My other PRs can land whenever we have time and they are ready. RC2,
8.1.x or 9.0.x.
