8.5.2

[PiercarloSlavazza]

Maven URLs are now required to be HTTPS (instead of plain HTTP)

Thank you for your contribution, however we do not intend to make any further releases of the 8.5.x line. This same issue was fixed in gate-core 8.6.1, if for any reason you are unable to upgrade to 8.6.1 or later (9.0.1 is the current release) then you can configure earlier versions to use the HTTPS version of central via your .m2/settings.xml file
