For the past couple of weeks, I have been working through to merge open PRs and get in some dependency updates. I think it's time we cut a Geb release in the 8.x line. Given that this would include:
1. The test-containers integration 2. The playwright experimental module 3. The merged example modules for Gradle, Maven, and JUnit (still working on Cucumber example, but PR is coming soon) 4. The new Geb AI skill markdown I think a minor release version makes more sense than a patch version. (8.1.0 instead of 8.0.2). After that, I'd like to work on building a next major version release. My thinking is that this should include: 1. A Groovy upgrade - Part of me thinks we should do a 9.0 based on 5.x and a 10.0 based on 6.x, but feel free to talk me out of that if you think that's a bad plan. 2. BiDi support, as a Selenium-friendly alternative to Playwright that still realizes a lot of the same value My question is whether there's anything that anyone else would like to see in any of these releases? This could include work on the thread safety concerns laid out in https://lists.apache.org/thread/vb8dtnpynwzok2cq8vqzglx6r7o8c9jc or something else entirely. Would love to hear from the Grails folks about what their needs are. Best, Jonny
