Hi all, I'd like to discuss initiating the next set of Pulsar maintenance releases: 3.0.15, 4.0.8, and 4.1.2.
Changes in branch-3.0 since 3.0.14: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/compare/v3.0.14...branch-3.0 Changes in branch-4.0 since 4.0.7: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/compare/v4.0.7...branch-4.0 Changes in branch-4.1 since 4.1.1: https://github.com/apache/pulsar/compare/v4.1.1...branch-4.1 Please review the full change log links above for complete details on all fixes and improvements included in these releases. Please note that Pulsar 3.3.x is no longer supported according to the Apache Pulsar release policy. For details on currently supported versions, please see: https://pulsar.apache.org/contribute/release-policy/#supported-versions Pulsar 3.0.15 docker image will come with Java 17.0.17 which includes a fix for JDK-8351933, https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8351933 . This JVM bug has impacted some Pulsar users by causing ForkJoinPool to stall. Pulsar users with Java 17 deployments on bare metal / VMs should upgrade to use Java 17.0.17 as the runtime. Latest Java 21 version (21.0.9) is the recommended runtime for Pulsar since 3.3.x. This recommendation has been updated to the README file: https://github.com/apache/pulsar?tab=readme-ov-file#pulsar-runtime-java-version-recommendation Unless there are any objections, I'll create release candidates for 3.0.15, 4.0.8, and 4.1.2 as soon as possible. -Lari
