Awesome. When you say there is no server version of Confluence 9.2 then I assume it is ok to not publish server versions for apps as well starting with Confluence 9.2?

Currently I am building as plugin-type=both. Are there any upcoming problems I do not foresee, when switching to <param name="plugin-type">data-center</param>?

<atlassian-plugin key="foo" name="${project.name}" plugins-version="2">
    <plugin-info>
        ....

        <param name="read-only-access-mode-compatible">true</param>
        <param name="atlassian-data-center-status">compatible</param>
        <param name="atlassian-data-center-compatible">true</param>
        <param name="atlassian-licensing-enabled">true</param>
        <param name="plugin-type">both</param><!-- Single Artifact for DC and Server: https://developer.atlassian.com/platform/marketplace/dc-apps-submitting-your-app/ -->
    </plugin-info>

Thanks

@VasylynaBurger, the changelog entry says:

This GA release was made available on 1 October 2024.

I guess that should say “10 December 2024”?

Hi @AndreasEbert, yes, it should say 10 December. Fixed now

Hi @clouless ,
I’ve asked our developers and this is the answer I received:
“8.5 LTS, which is the last Server release, is still receiving bugfixes until August 2025. Expect many customers to still be on this version for some time to come. There is a fraction of the userbase on that version that are still using Server licenses, though that number is shrinking all the time”.
Hope it helps.
