Hello, Apache MINA SSHD has started development for a new major release 3.0.0 a while back. This is a major effort aimed at
* cleaning up, * refactoring to enable providing some features that with version 2 cannot be implemented properly, * fixing some issues in version 2 that cannot be fixed properly without breaking API. Work is done in a feature branch dev_3.0 https://github.com/apache/mina-sshd/tree/dev_3.0 and snapshots are published to the Apache Snapshots repository. We will keep maintaining version 2 (last release currently at 2.16.0) while developing version 3 until version 3.0.0 will be officially released. To facilitate consumption by interested early adopters I want to publish a series of milestone pre-releases during this version 3 development effort. This version Apache Mina SSHD 3.0.0-M1 is the first such milestone release. Since version 3 breaks API compared to version 2, we publish japicmp reports at https://apache.github.io/mina-sshd , where you can also find a very high-level and very tentative roadmap. The main change is a major refactoring on the SSH transport protocol implementation. This was in version 2 all done in one big messy class AbstractSession. It has been split out and implemented as a filter chain instead: https://github.com/apache/mina-sshd/blob/dev_3.0/docs/technical/filters.md This then enabled providing a new feature that users have been asking for for a long time: client-side support for SOCKS5 and HTTP CONNECT proxies. The container tests are newly skipped if there is no docker engine running. If there _is_ a docker engine, they are newly run also on Windows, and also with the MINA and netty transports. I have staged a candidate release and invite you to review and vote on it.
