Greetings,
I'm pleased to announce the release of amavis version 2.12.0.
This release fixes some of the most outstanding bugs and it introduces a new
feature to include rspamd as spam scanner into the amavis content filter
framework. Take a look at the RELEASE_NOTES for a list of changes.
For those on the amavis developer mailing list turn to
https://gitlab.com/amavis/amavis/-/tags to download the version tagged
"v2.12.0".
Once I've figured out how to upload/send the new release to amavis' website I
will also notify the amavis user mailing list subscribers.
Let me take a moment to thank everyone, who contributed code, concentration
and/or time to make this release happen. You did a great job!
There will be more work ahead. We plan to release more often in smaller steps
to continually improve amavis. So just in case you weren't able to get your
hands dirty this time – there will be another chance… ;-)

Greetings!
It's about time I wrote a mail on the next steps this project will
undergo in the near future.
= Bug Fix Release
We plan to release a new amavis version in about 4 weeks from now.
This upcoming release will focus on bug fixes and we plan to merge all
outstanding issues adressing bugs.
We will also add a new feature: amavis will be able to use rspamd as spam
scanner and rspamd will be able to use amavis' content filter framework
capabilities. Though this can be already acchieved today with a few hacks, the
method we will add will simplify the setup significantly. The code for this
has been written and tested and it will be merged within the next weeks and
shipped with the upcoming release.
= Improvements Release
Top on our roadmap for the release, following the one I described above, is to
split amavis' code into smaller chunks. This will make live easier for
developers. Markus Benning has already started to work on this issue. But it
is not an easy one and the tricky part – coming up with something that
dynamically loads the apropriate modules depending on the configuration
settings – remains to be done yet.
This release hopefully will also be the one that introduces documentation for
admins/operators. I'm saying "hopefully" because the task has been assigned to
me and I'm still searching for that spot from which everything explained seems
to "make sense".
