The PR has been merged; kogito-runtimes code now lives in the Drools repo! Another repo down as part of our 10.3.x consolidation!
As outlined in yesterday's notice, the code freeze went into effect at 8AM CET this morning. With no new commits since my latest sync, a clean CI run, and two approving reviews, I went ahead with the merge as planned. The kogito-runtimes repository will be archived shortly. For anyone with open PRs targeting the kogito-runtimes repository: please update your PRs to target the appropriate path within the new merged structure inside the Drools repo. The old kogito-runtimes repo will remain available in read-only/archived form for reference. I'll be creating the kogito-apps merge PR later today. Thank you all for your feedback and reviews!
