Hi! old plugins should still work on newer installations without any code changes, but if you wish to use the new API, code changes should be straightforward. As for the JDK, we're targetting 11 right now, but after 2.12.3 and upgrading to jakarta stack we would also move to at least JDK-17. If you'd want the plugins to work on older installations as well, JDK-8 would be the way to go.. so you have plenty of choices there :O)
It's totally fine to host your plugins at github or wherever you see fit :-) if you end up at GH, I'd ask you to label the repo(s) with jspwiki so they can be more easily discovered, cheers, juan pablo On Wed, Jun 11, 2025 at 11:20 AM Murray Altheim <murra...@altheim.com> wrote: > > Hi Juan Pablo, > > Okay, thanks for that.
