🚀 The Play Team is pleased to announce the release of Lagom 1.6.0-M2. This is the first milestone release of Lagom 1.6.x series. Like all milestone releases, the primary goal is to get feedback, so please let us know if something isn't working or you see something that should be improved.

🔄 Changelog
Some of the most relevant changes are:
🚀 1. Akka 2.6.0-M2: as you can see in our roadmap, support Akka 2.6 is a priority, so we are closely tracking Akka 2.6 milestone releases to discover possible integrations problems sooner than later. 🚀 2. Play 2.8.0-M1: we did a milestone release for Play a few days ago, and this Lagom milestone is already using that too. ⚡️ 3. Java 11 support: Lagom 1.6.0 applications will support Java 11. We still have work to do, but this milestone already updates some dependencies to versions that have better support for Java 11 and increase our testing surface using it. ⚡️ 4. Dependencies updates: thanks to scala-steward, all dependencies were updated to the newest versions.
