uPortal 5 release delayed until later this week

[Benito Gonzalez]

Hi folks,

We have a key enhancement we want to add to this next release along with some additional dependency upgrades. We were unable to complete those for last Friday, so we are delaying the release to this Friday.

We have key PRs merged, and will use the extra time for more testing and merging of dependencies.

The new feature is the ability to replicate sessions between uPortal servers. If enabled and configured correctly, this should enable deployers to remove the need to pin users to specific servers to retain session state. uPortal nodes in a cluster can also be dynamically added and removed. This is exciting news!

Have a great week,

-bjagg
