I'm *extremely* happy to announce that WildFly 18.0.0.Final is now available for download at https://wildfly.org/downloads/. I discuss the details of what's in the release at https://wildfly.org/news/2019/10/03/WildFly18-Final-Released/. All WildFly releases are a big effort, but relative to the time window we had to do it in this one has been particularly big. My deepest thanks to all of you who worked so hard, particularly to Scott Marlow and Alessio Soldano who did so much on the Jakarta EE front and to James Perkins for coordinating this release. I'm also way overdue in thanking the many excellent quality engineers who have been doing such excellent work in ensuring the new features we add to WildFly are high quality from the moment they get merged. Many thanks to Tommasso Borgato, Martin Choma, Richard Janik, Michael Jurc, Jan Kasik, Marek Kopecky, Ondrej Kota, Miroslav Novak, Simon Priadka, Martin Svehla, Jan Stourac, Ivan Straka, Tomas Terem, and Nikoleta Ziakova. You're the best! Enjoy! Best regards, Brian
