* Discussed the Grails 7.0.3 Release Status - decided to start a vote by end of day due to the critical issues that were fixed - will require the asset pipeline, James Fredley to follow-up by end of day on updating to 5.0.21 * Discussed Grails 7.0.4 - will target Spring Boot 3.5.8 - may target Groovy 4.0.30 depending if it's released - this release will follow 7.0.3 within the week likely * Discussed Grails 7.1.0 - Decided to start vote on 11/26/25 * Groovy 5 Work - Draft PR is now using Spock snapshots - There are still compile issues that need examined; if anyone has free time, please take a look * Grails Merch - Shirt, Stickers, etc - discussed the history of trying to get Grails merch and how it can be difficult across economic zones due to customs, etc. - proposed requirements for selecting a vendor: -- Provider is the merchant of record and handles payment -- Worldwide Shipping from multiple countries to streamline logistics and customs -- Allows Grails to set $0 or 0% royalty - some proposed candidates are https://ww.redbubble.com & https://www.spreadshirt.com - need further investigation, community feedback is welcome if anyone knows of another vendor * Nov Board Report has been submitted & was preapproved * grails-micronaut follow-up - discovered spring boot dev tools does not work with micronaut approach (opened https://github.com/micronaut-projects/micronaut-spring/issues/769) - started branch @ https://github.com/apache/grails-core/tree/micronaut-fixes to address issues -- fixes sharing spring beans with micronaut and fixes duplicate bean registration by excluding the micronaut-spring-context -- does not fix importing micronaut only beans into spring nor does it import micronaut only configuration --- right solution likely needs to include the micronaut-spring-context library with some type of filter to avoid duplicate beans - Help is wanted on this branch given the limited cycles - micronaut with Grails 7 is likely experimental / not working in prod configurations without these changes. * reloading discussion - previously removed the default reloading which caused several tickets to be opened - spring boot dev tools was added back, but has caused other issues (i.e. is not compatible with micronaut) - proposal to replace `Test Framework` with `Development Reloading` and list the reloading options instead of specifying spring boot dev as a default feature. - spring boot dev tools will still be the default choice, but will allow overriding (jrebel, intellij hotswap, etc) - reloading is viewed as a key component with grails given it's history and ease of use - decided to go forward with the proposal. James D will begin the UI change work. * Reviewed PR: Allow namespace scaffold views to default to scaffold namespace templates instead of non namespace views - https://github.com/apache/grails-core/pull/15240 - decided documentation & test needed to merge * Reviewed https://github.com/apache/grails-core/issues/15132 - PR: https://github.com/apache/grails-core/pull/15227 - reverts previous change that was pulled forward from merging older grails versions upwards - needs further investigation; Søren will investigate & we will merge PR once build is passing if no issues found * Reviewed: https://github.com/apache/grails-core/pull/15241#pullrequestreview-3483552056 - Update Selenium/Geb for 7.0.3 - Group decided to merge * Reviewed Banner change PR for additional metadata - Decided to merge for 7.1.x
