ASF GitHub Bot logged work on DIRMINA-1197:
-------------------------------------------

                Author: ASF GitHub Bot
            Created on: 04/Jun/26 07:52
            Start Date: 04/Jun/26 07:52
    Worklog Time Spent: 10m 
      Work Description: ppkarwasz opened a new pull request, #53:
URL: https://github.com/apache/mina/pull/53

   Update the GitHub Actions workflow to current action versions and runners, 
and clarify its comments.
   
   - Pin to ubuntu-latest, windows-latest and macos-latest, testing JDK 17, 21 
and 25 on Temurin.
   - Bump actions/checkout to v6 (without persisting credentials), 
actions/setup-java to v5 (with Maven caching), and add an 
actions/upload-artifact@v7 step for the surefire reports.
   - Limit push builds to the maintained production branches so internal 
feature branches are not built twice.
   - Add a workflow-level concurrency group that cancels superseded pull 
request runs while letting pushes to the production branches run to completion.
   - Run `mvn verify` instead of `mvn test`, and set per-job permissions.

> Many workflows in {{apache/mina}} seem abandoned.
> Currently only two branches carry a workflow, both the single file 
> {{{}.github/workflows/ci.yaml{}}}:
>  * {{trunk}} (last modified 2020-10-12)
>  * {{2.2.X}} (last modified 2023-04-30)
> Branches {{2.0.X}} and {{2.1.X}} have no workflows at all. Meanwhile all four 
> branches received commits as recently as 2026-06-01, so the workflow files 
> have sat untouched for 3 to 5 years against actively developed code.
> Both {{ci.yaml}} files use sunset runners and obsolete actions, so they can 
> no longer run on current GitHub infrastructure:
>  * {{runs-on}} requests {{ubuntu-18.04}} (fully removed in April 2023) and 
> {{windows-2016}} (also removed). Jobs pinned to these labels can no longer be 
> scheduled and fail immediately.
>  * Steps use {{actions/checkout@v1}} and {{{}actions/setup-java@v1{}}}, both 
> deprecated Node 12 era actions. The current majors are v4/v5.
>  * The trigger is {{on: [push]}} with no branch or path filter, so it 
> attempts to run on every push to every branch, including {{bugfix/*}} and 
> experimental branches.
> I can help modernizing the workflows, but I would need to know which branches 
> should run workflows on {{{}push{}}}. Is it {{{}2.0.X{}}}, {{{}2.1.X{}}}, 
> {{2.2.X}} and {{{}trunk{}}}? Note that {{2.0.X}} and {{2.1.X}} currently have 
> none, so please confirm whether they should gain one.
> Note that workflows should be updated regularly, especially since all actions 
> except those from the {{actions}} and {{github}} organisation need to be 
> whitelisted by the ASF. If there are many active development branches, it 
> might be useful to host *reusable* workflows in one specialized branch (e.g. 
> {{{}gha/v1{}}}) and only refer to them from other branches.
