[HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Hi everyone,

I propose:
1. ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 by end of August/beginning of September, as
a maintenance release, containing several fixes and dependency updates
2. ActiveMQ Classic 6.2.0 by end of October/beginning of November. The
purpose here is to add at least one new feature to support Jakarta
Messaging 3.x.

Thoughts ?

In the meantime, I'm working on a prototype for ActiveMQ Classic 7.x,
removing Spring dependency and using service discovery mechanism (for
destination policies, transport connectors, etc). Also I'm resuming
the investigation about replicated KahaDB.

Thanks
Regards
JB

Posted by Jean-Baptiste Onofré <jb...@nanthrax.net>.

Hi everyone,

Now that the ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 release is done, I'm moving
forward with 6.2.0 release prep.
I hope to have the 6.2.0 release on vote today or tomorrow.

Regards
JB

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Colm O hEigeartaigh <co...@apache.org>.

@JB, I'm keen to see the 6.2.0 release with the Spring upgrade - is there anything I can do to help get the release done?

Thanks,

Colm.

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Jean-Baptiste Onofré <jb...@nanthrax.net>.

Hi Chris

Thanks for your feedback. I will move forward on 6.2.0 prep as it will
include important dependency updates and fixes.

Agree for Jetty 12.1 in ActiveMQ 6.3.0, it should not be a problem to
update once we have the Jetty 12 support.
Also, it gives us time to test the GitHub Action in prep in addition
of Jenkins for CI.

I will start the 6.2.0 prep then.

Thanks !

Regards
JB

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Christopher Shannon <ch...@gmail.com>.

Sorry for the late reply, going with 6.2.0 and waiting on Jetty for 6.3.0
is fine to get things out faster.

Jetty 12.1 is out so I'm wondering if it makes sense to just go right to
Jetty 12.1 at this point. The EE layer is decoupled so we can still target
Jakarta EE 9.

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Jean-Baptiste Onofré <jb...@nanthrax.net>.

Hi Matt

It's not a problem to postpone Jetty 12 to 6.3.x, targeting October.

The first purpose of 6.2.0 is about important dependency updates (not
really backward compatible) to fix security issues.

Let's keep the pace :)

Regards
JB

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Matt Pavlovich <ma...@apache.org>.

Hi JB-

I don’t think Jetty 12 will be ready then, since we should not rush it and risk a security issue with the web layer. Perhaps we target 6.3.0 for October with Jetty 12?

I plan to merge Virtual Thread experimental support and other minor clean-up PRs for 6.2.0.

Bigger changes, such as SSLContext-migrate-from-ThreadLocal will wait for 6.3.x or 6.4.x.

Thanks,
Matt

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Jean-Baptiste Onofré <jb...@nanthrax.net>.

Hi folks,

Regarding important dependencies updates (spring, common, ...), and
timing, I propose to move "faster" on the ActiveMQ 6.2.0 release.

What about submitting to vote both 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 by the end of this
week/beginning of next week ?

I will tackle PRs for 6.2.0 now that I'm back from CommuntyOverCode.

Regards
JB

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Jean-Baptiste Onofré <jb...@nanthrax.net>.

Hi

It's a good comment Colm and that's exactly the proposal about
ActiveMQ 6.2.0 release.
The purposes of ActiveMQ 6.2.0 are:
1. Bump "major" dependency version (Spring, Jetty, etc)
2. Include new Jakarta Messaging 3.1 features

So we are on the same page here.

I proposed 6.2.0 for October, and I think we are on track. Matt worked
on Jetty 12 update, and I will help on that.
For the other major version bumps, it's almost done.

Regards
JB

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Matt Pavlovich <ma...@apache.org>.

I have POC of migrating to use Jetty xml files for configuration, instead of hand wiring Spring beans to Jetty classes (approach used today).

This is the last major change for Jetty 12 support in ActiveMQ 6.2.0

I could use an assist on configuring the webapp deployments for /console and /api

Hi Colm-

It would help if you test this change out (replace commons-lang3 with built-in function):

https://github.com/apache/activemq/pull/1469

Thanks,
Matt

Hi Colm-

I think that is essential the plan for ActiveMQ 6.2.0. Are you seeing other?

The upgrade work for Jetty 12 is almost done — check PR here:

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Christopher Shannon <ch...@gmail.com>.

It should be fine to just cut 6.2.0 off and reelase it with Spring 6.2 and
Jetty 12 and probably makes sense to do that. Jetty 12.1 just came out but
we should stick to Jetty 12.0.x for now I think.

We are not limited on releases so if there's Jakarta features ready we can
do a 6.3.0 at any point, even a month later.

Re: [HEADS UP] Apache ActiveMQ Classic 6.1.8 and 6.2.0 releases

Posted by Colm O hEigeartaigh <co...@apache.org>.

Hi,

It's increasingly a problem that the only ActiveMQ classic releases available use EOL libraries (Spring 6.1, Jetty 11), in terms of running CVEs in production. I'd like to respectfully request that the focus is on updating to Jetty 12 and releasing, rather than delaying AMQ 6.2.0 for other features. I'm happy to help out with dependency updates, testing etc.

Thanks,

Colm.

Thanks JB for bringing it up.

For 6.2.0, maybe we can review and merge this
https://github.com/apache/activemq/pull/1390 (Jakarta Messaging 3.1
asynchronous send) ? The prototype is completed.

Thanks,
Ken

For 6.2.0 I propose merging the Virtual Thread tech preview feature and move to Jetty 12.

The Jetty 12 PR is ~80% complete.

JB,

Sorry for the delayed response, I think the time frame for a 6.1.8 release
is fine.

For 6.2.0 that timeline seems ok assuming it's ready by that date, I would
need to go back and look at the proposals for the new Jakarta features, but
is there any particular one you had in mind to include?
