Hi everyone, I’m quite happy to announce the availability of WildFly Server Migration Tool 1.12.0.Final, the latest release of the standalone tool that helps migrating between different versions of WildFly distributions.

This tool may be used to do the following server migrations:

* WildFly 14.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 15.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 16.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 17.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 18.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 19.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 20.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 21.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 22.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 23.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 24.0 to WildFly 26.0
* WildFly 25.0 to WildFly 26.0

* WildFly 26.0 to WildFly 31.0
* WildFly 27.0 to WildFly 31.0
* WildFly 28.0 to WildFly 31.0
* WildFly 29.0 to WildFly 31.0
* WildFly 30.0 to WildFly 31.0

* JBoss EAP 7.0 to JBoss EAP 8.0
* JBoss EAP 7.1 to JBoss EAP 8.0
* JBoss EAP 7.2 to JBoss EAP 8.0
* JBoss EAP 7.3 to JBoss EAP 8.0
* JBoss EAP 7.4 to JBoss EAP 8.0

A couple of important notes:
* Due to a WildFly 31 issue it's not possible to migrate (using this tool) to such version, from WildFly 25.0 or older. To accomplish this a multiple step migration is needed, by first migrating to WildFly 26, and finally migrating from WildFly 26 to WildFly 31.
* Migration from a WildFly version before the legacy security framework's removal (WildFly 24 or older), to WildFly 26, changes all security configurations to WildFly 26 defaults, which means that further manual configuration should be needed in case the defaults were *not* previously being used.

For this particular release I would like to send a very special "thank you" to Ivo Studensky and Ondrej Kotek, for their outstanding contributions.
