Question: Milestones and Release Schedule

[mmoayyed]

Thank you for taking care of the integration between Spring Session and Hazelcast.

My question is: could you please consider defining milestones and a release schedule?

Now that Spring Boot v4 has been released, it would also be excellent to publish an RC here.

Thanks again

Thanks @mmoayyed for creating the issue!

We have some small UX improvements in our backlogs, aiming to finish them soon and before release, as some will be breaking changes in terms of SemVer (don't worry, configuration will be actually smaller :) ).
I cannot say specific date yet, will keep you updated.

Thank you! We are continuously testing the SNAPSHOT versions and fixing stuff along the way, if any. Look forward to trying out the first milestone or release candidate.

Happy new year!

Wanted to circle back and ask if the project is closer to publishing an M1 or RC1? I see a lot of great progress made here in the recent commits. Is there a potential timeline for when a release might be available?

Thank you!

Hello and Happy New Year!

I'm happy to say that 4.0.0-RC1 was released: https://github.com/hazelcast/hazelcast-spring-session/releases/tag/v4.0.0-RC1

We are expecting around 2 week period before GA will be made, of course it can change a bit depending on issues found and other factors.

Initial feedback is very welcome
