Team, We have had some great feedback and many improvements since the release of NiFi 2.0.0-M1 at the end of November. With over 160 [1] Jira issues already resolved for the next iteration, we are in a good position to prepare for another milestone release version.
The main branch now includes significant framework dependency upgrades such as Spring 6 and Jetty 12, along with several new components and other bug fixes. Considering the significant number of changes to framework libraries already in place, it would be useful to release a second milestone version before a full general availability release. There is a pull request for NIFI-9458 [2] that includes impactful lower-level changes to date and time parsing and formatting, which is part of the NiFi 2.0 Release Goals [3]. Following the review and incorporation of these changes, I would be glad to handle Release Manager responsibilities for a NiFi 2.0.0-M2 version, ideally at some point this week.
