Crossfiresync v0.0.7 is now available, published on October 26, 2025. This maintenance release continues our commitment to keeping the library secure and up-to-date with the latest upstream dependencies while maintaining full backward compatibility.

What’s New

Version 0.0.7 focuses on infrastructure improvements and dependency management rather than new features. Here are the key updates:

Dependency Updates:

  • Google Cloud libraries updated (google-cloudevent-types 0.16.0 → 0.17.1)
  • JUnit Jupiter upgraded to version 5.13.4
  • Mockito updated to 5.20.0
  • Lombok upgraded to 1.18.42
  • Various Maven plugins and GitHub Actions refreshed to their latest versions

Build Infrastructure:

  • Added JUnit BOM (Bill of Materials) for centralized test dependency version management
  • Updated GitHub Actions workflows including actions/checkout, actions/setup-java, and security scanning tools

This release welcomed new contributor @JaredHatfield, who added the JUnit BOM configuration to streamline future dependency management.

Why It Matters

While this release doesn’t introduce new functionality, it serves an important role in maintaining the health and security of your crossfiresync deployments:

  • Security: Regular dependency updates ensure you benefit from upstream security patches
  • Stability: Updated test frameworks improve our ability to catch regressions before release
  • No Breaking Changes: This is a drop-in replacement for v0.0.6—upgrade with confidence
  • Active Maintenance: Frequent releases demonstrate ongoing commitment to the project

Upgrade Instructions
