7.2.0-RC5 Release Notes
We strongly recommend that you take advantage of the release candidates as they come out. Waiting for a GA
release is only going to set
you up for unpleasant surprises. A GA
is a tag and nothing more. Note
that CAS releases are strictly time-based releases; they are not scheduled or based on specific benchmarks,
statistics or completion of features. To gain confidence in a particular
release, it is strongly recommended that you start early by experimenting with release candidates and/or follow-up snapshots.
Apereo Membership
If you benefit from Apereo CAS as free and open-source software, we invite you to join the Apereo Foundation and financially support the project at a capacity that best suits your deployment. Note that all development activity is performed almost exclusively on a voluntary basis with no expectations, commitments or strings attached. Having the financial means to better sustain engineering activities will allow the developer community to allocate dedicated and committed time for long-term support, maintenance and release planning, especially when it comes to addressing critical and security issues in a timely manner.
Get Involved
- Start your CAS deployment today. Try out features and share feedback.
