Adarsh,
CR1 is "candidate release 1" and is available from the JBoss Maven
Repositories. 5.6.0.Final will probably be released this week.
There are quite a few internal differences between 5.3 and 5.6, but as
far as I know the APIs have remained the same,
so it should be possible to switch almost effortlessly. Others may be
able to comment on their upgrade experience.
Ruleflows, however, have been informally deprecated in favor of proper
bpmn business processes for a while, so not much
was added there, but they should still be supported in 5.6.
Also remember that even 5.6, while a bit more robust from that
perspective, is not guaranteed to be 100% thread safe.

Davide,
Thanks for your reply on this.What does CR1stands for in 5.6.0.CR1and
can someone point me to the release life cycle timelines?.
Also the important aspect is are 5.6.0.CR1and *5.5.0.Final*
versions backward compatible to 5.3.0.Final and fully regressed ?
Is there any documentation that describes the major changes like
this .We are mostly using the rule engine with the rule flow aspects
of the product
Thanks and regards,

Subject: Re: [rules-users] Drools KB Object hierarchy Serilisation
and Deserialisation thread safety issue
Sent by: rules-users-bounces(a)lists.jboss.org
------------------------------------------------------------------------
As far as I know, older versions of Drools were not guaranteed to be
thread-safe,
and the whole (de)serialization subsystem has been upgraded since
5.3.0.Final.
Could you try a later version such as 5.5.0.Final or 5.6.0.CR1?
Bugs and issues are usually reported using JIRA (community) or
Bugzilla (product)
You can find more information on how to report/contribute here:_

or in the drools documentation, chapter 1.2

Hi,
We have found that some of the drools classes are not thread safe
and hence causing the whole KB serialisation and deserialisation
issues in a highly concurrent distributed cluster.
The below is an example of one of the instances we have come across
where the usage of a non thread safe collection as instance
variables has caused the issue.
Could someone look into this and advise:
1) If this has been reported /identified and logged somewhere as an
issue already
2)If there has been any fix to problems like this in later versions
of * 5.3.0.Final ?.*
3)If not fixed already what is the process to initiate a fix.
