Lucee 6.2 LTS
Lucee 6.2 is our new LTS release, with 5.4 LTS having reached the End of Life at the end of 2025.
LTS means no new features, only critical important bug fixes.
There are already major architectural changes in 7, especially for Java integration which will not be backported.
As the next LTS will be Lucee 7, personally I would recommend jumping to 7.0 for any new upgrades, rather than 6.2, as there is a lot of nice stuff in 7.0
Lucee 7 Single mode / Jakarta migration

Lucee 7.2 - configuration modernisation + extension management
Our bleeding edge active development branch
Micha has completely overhauled the way configuration is handled internally, moving to programmatically defined configuration, with schema support, validation and incremental application of config changes (rather than requiring a full config reload for each change)
Extension handling has also been overhauled
More to come!
