What’s new
Today, we’re pleased to present a Search Provider change to the Lucene library and the upgrade of AUI to version 8. The good news is, we do not anticipate further breaking changes related to Lucene. All the changes are listed in our Preparing for Jira 8.0 write-up.
What’s still coming
Currently we’re still planning to release EAP milestone 07 with last breaking changes related to Java 11 and Jira platform upgrade.
