On behalf of the team, I am pleased to announce that Spring Cloud Stream 1.0.1.RELEASE is now available. The artifacts can be found in Spring Repository as well as Maven Central.

As a maintenance release it includes a number of fixes and improvements, such as:

• additional configuration options for bindings;
• the ability to create binder configurations that do not interfere with the user-created ones; this is a feature useful for libraries that include Spring Cloud Stream under the hood and wish to do so

transparently.

The entire list of changes can be found here.

It's my pleasure to announce the release of Spring REST Docs 1.1.0.RELEASE which is now available for Maven Central, JCenter and our release repository.

Highlights

REST Assured

As an alternative to the lightweight server-less documentation generation offered by Spring Framework's MockMvc, you can now use REST Assured to test and document your RESTful services. This opens up Spring REST Docs to all four corners of the JVM and beyond, allowing you to document anything that you can access via HTTP.

The samples now include an app that is documented using REST Docs, built using Grails, and tested using Spock. A third-party sample that uses REST Docs to document an API implemented using Ratpack is also available. My thanks to Jenn Strater…
