This page is a time table for future releases (see geoserver community process ). It is used to track dates and volunteers for each release. Dates are indicative and can be moved based on the availability of people volunteering as release managers.

* GeoServer branches that have reached end-of-life may still be updated by support providers on behalf of their customers (often this is done to address security vulnerabilities). As a member of the GeoServer community you may volunteer to make an additional release (there is a build server and a release guide to help you).

** OpenJDK Java 11 reaches end-of-life October 2024 for Temurin and RedHat distributions subject to upstream OpenJDK releases . This is a little longer then the OpenJDK Java 11 September 2023 date provided by Oracle (which also offers extended support).

*** GeoServer is a J2EE web-application as supported by Apache Tomcat. The Apache Tomcat 9.x is the last branch providing J2EE prior migrating to Jakarta-EE. Apache Tomcat 9.x has not yet provided an end-of-life date.

As a server project GeoServer upgrade plans focus on stable long-term-support releases. Our planning is due to the availability of maintenance and security patches for the libraries we use (such as the spring-framework and Apache Wicket among others).
