Hi everyone, Putting forward the proposal to backport GEODE-9091 (Serialization Improvements) to support/1.14 branch, What does GEODE-9091 do? * It adds serialVersionUID to the Serializable classes in geode-redis module * It converts all DataSerializable classes to DataSerializableFixedID classes Why do we need to backport these changes? * These changes future-proofs the geode-redis data structures from being used in mixed version clusters. * This will ensure that changes to serializable classes do not break backward compatibility. * If these classes get changed in the future, the serialVersionUIDs will remain the same and can be used with older and newer versions. * If we don't backport these changes to 1.14.0 then future releases of geode-redis will not be compatible with it.
