Re: [jetty-users] 9.3.0 RC1 introduces dependency on Java 8?
|
I'll be staging the 9.3.0 release on monday and we'll do some testing
and plan is to release next week. So testing out RC1 is absolutely a
wonderful thing to do :)
The distribution is available in maven central:
https://search.maven.org/#artifactdetails%7Corg.eclipse.jetty%7Cjetty-distribution%7C9.3.0.RC1%7Cpom
cheers,
Jesse
