Is a next release planned? #198

Hey 👋

First of all, thanks for your hard work maintaining this project! It is highly appreciated 🙏

I've noticed that the support for Scala 3 has been merged in #167, however no release has been made with these updates. Is there a reason for it that I missed? If not, are you planning on releasing in the near future?

Thanks in advance 🙏

The only pekko-projection module that isn't released for Scala 3 is pekko-projection-slick. pekko-projection-slick is deprecated. Please see https://pekko.apache.org/docs/pekko-projection/current/slick.html We will still do new releases for pekko-projection-slick but they are not as high priority as other more commonly used libs.

I am hoping to start doing v1.1.0 releases for Pekko modules soon but it could take a while to get to pekko-projection. It requires that we release most of our other modules first. We have v1.1.0-M1 releases for most modules but not for pekko-projection and at this stage, I think the community benefits more from us starting v1.1.0 releases. Releases are non trivial events requiring release management, reviews and votes.

So - would you consider switching to pekko-projection-jdbc? If you are stuck with pekko-projection-slick, could you consider building the classes for yourself? On a quick check, I only found 4 source files in src/main plus the reference.conf.

I see. Thanks for the explanation 🙏

On our side, the goal is to enable team to start to upgrade our projects/services to Scala 3.

Since we use other projects that rely on slick, when upgrading those we get a conflict with pekko-projection-slick as it is bringing an older version of slick (3.4.1) which does not support Scala 3. Having a release of pekko-projection-slick with slick 3.5.x would then be super helpful to us.

However, thanks for the suggestion! We will further explore our options.

I've created an RC and started a vote. There are no guarantees that people will be available to review this RC.

Did we deprecate this ourselves or was pekko-projection-slick already deprecated by the time we forked Akka?

pjfanning commented 3 months ago

Deprecated before we forked.

mdedetrich commented 3 months ago

Deprecated before we forked.

Okay, would be good to look into the reasons why (my immediate suspicion is due to Slick becoming a community project and at the time its maintainership was really in question).

@raboof @jrudolph Any idea here?

raboof commented 2 months ago

I don't know/remember - did we think pekko-projection-jdbc would be sufficient / more suitable for projections?

pjfanning commented 2 months ago

1.1.0-M1 is released. It will take a few months to get to a 1.1.0 release because we have to release all the core modules first.

This is highly appreciated! Thanks a lot to everyone involved 🙏
