May 1, 2025May 2025 – Felix HTTP Jetty integration progressed with targeted reliability and security improvements, modernizing the HTTP stack while improving release readiness. Key changes include enforcing maxFormSize for Jetty HTTP, introducing configurable HTTP size limits (request/response) with SizeLimitHandler, upgrading Jetty to 12.0.20 and 12.0.21, and enhancing CI for Java 23. Added support for custom headers on Jetty error pages and performed release-process housekeeping across HTTP Jetty components. Release preparation for org.apache.felix.http.base-5.1.14 and related modules completed. These changes reduce risk from oversized payloads, improve stability under load, accelerate iterations, and improve observability through tests and docs.

Mar 1, 2025March 2025: Modernized the Felix HTTP Jetty stack and strengthened release discipline across apache/felix-dev. Key features delivered include Jetty upgrades to 12.0.17 with extended enum handling to include JETTY_11, and planning/integration toward 12.0.18 and 11.0.25 to capture the latest fixes and improvements. Implemented Path cookie handling fixes with tests, including wrappers/Jetty bundle adjustments and baselining considerations to improve cookie semantics and reliability. Reverted the 12.0.17 upgrade when necessary to preserve stability, and prepared subsequent Jetty upgrades for a smoother release, backed by enhanced release tooling. Release packaging and workflow improvements were enacted via Maven Release Plugin updates across modules (jetty, jetty12, wrappers), enabling more consistent, faster, and auditable releases. Additionally, wrappers snapshot and build-order adjustments were introduced to ensure correct dependency ordering and avoid cookie path processing issues. Overall impact: higher stability, improved compatibility with Jetty fixes, more reliable cookie handling, and streamlined, repeatable release cycles with clear business value.
