Now that we finally got 6.2.0.321 out the door, time for a roadmap update
Lucee 5.4 - LTS
5.4 is only going to receive urgent security updates until December 31st 2025 and is no longer being developed. It’s time to start planning an upgrade.
Lucee 6.2.1
This will be a quick follow up bug fix release, following up 6.2.0 addressing any regressions found with 6.2.0
I have been working on addressing some long standing session management and cookie related bugs, you can see the progress in this epic
that’s our bucket list of issues we would like to address, only a subset will be addressed in 6.2.1
Lucee 7.0
Lucee 7.0 is nearing it’s first BETA, with CFCAMP 2025 coming up, you could assume we are aiming for a release announcement at CFCAMP
- single context only
- config loaded on demand
- faster start up / deployment
- more AI support
Next LTS Release
We haven’t decided yet, but 6.2 is the first potential candidate for a LTS release as it supports Jakarta / Tomcat 10.1, but we might decide on 7.0
