ETA for Morphia 3.0 release

[thomkri]

We are looking in to upgrading to the latest MongoDB release, but we are kind of blocked (from full feature support at least) beacuse we are using Morphia as well.

I understand that there is no plans to support MondoDB Java Driver 5.* on Morphia 2.4, but do you have any ETA for the Morphia 3.0 release?

Server Version: MongoDB Server 8.0
Driver Version: MongoDB Java Driver 5.2.1
Spring Boot version: 3.4.3
Morphia Version: 2.4.15

I think I need to divvy up what I'm targeting for 3.0 and bump things to 3.1+. I'll have to look over the list and try to start pruning a bit. 3.0 is taking longer than I'd hoped for various reasons but the one big thing I want to get in to it is the mapping overhaul and finally removing all the deprecations. I'm using with openrewrite to build automated refactorings to realign projects to the new API where they haven't already updated and that is taking some time to figure out. But I have a good handle on it now and a proper test cycle so I'm hoping that will accelerate going forward. I wish I had a more solid date for you. I'm trying to clear the deck so I can focus more on Morphia. I'm also considering biting the bullet and publishing a 2.5 so I can fix that driver issue. That's likely to happen, the more I think about it.

Hi @evanchooly, I can see that a 2.5.0 version was released 2 days ago. Is this ready for use?

[evanchooly]

It is. It's mostly just the changes necessary for the newer driver.

[thomkri]

Perfect! Thank you again for looking in to and fixing this so quickly :)

@evanchooly I discovered a bug with the 2.5.0 version and capped collections. I have created a bug issue for it here: #3454

Let me know if you need me to fill out more information in the bug issue
