Today's topic could only be THE ONE - the release of JDK 20. We will go through what the new release carries but also does not bring.

A week before the release of JDK 20, we will continue to write about JDK 21, which is due to the fact that we are constantly bombarded with new JEPs. In addition to that - the state of the Jakarta EE 10 community and obligatory Release Radar.

Today we take our first look at the topic of what the next major release of JDK 21 will bring. In addition, some interesting material about JFR and Release Radar collecting news from the past few weeks.

Since there were no edits a week ago due to my vacation, we've had a bit of a buildup of topics. Therefore, today we will focus on the JEPs - because several interesting ones have appeared.

Have you already optimized your applications to reduce your impact on global warming? In addition to this, a new version of Gradle, a follow-up to last week's edition.

Three topics today, and actually each of them deserved a headline... Which, however, shows how much has been going on in the past week. So there will be the announcement of Kotlin 2.0, a set of experiments with Project Loom, and.... could it be that Kotlin Nulls are about to appear in Java?

Today is going to be a lot about money - because there has been a change in Oracle JDK pricing, and AtomicJar has received a fat round of funding. The star of the issue, however, is a handful of statistics from the "State of Developer Ecosystem 2022" by JetBrains

Well, after a rather slow start, 2023 can finally be considered to have officially begun - both JEPs and Java mailing lists have awakened from their winter sleep.

The year is just gaining momentum, so in today's issue, I have some longer texts for you, in addition to news, which you may find helpful. There will also be exciting releases (e.g. Mockito 5.0 with big changes).

After a week of recaps, we're back to new topics, with the fresh Kotlin 1.8 and MicroProfile 6.0 launching first in 2023.
