From this release, some of the Keycloak client libraries will have release cycle independent of the Keycloak server release cycle. The 26.0.0 release may be the last one when the client libraries are released together with the Keycloak server. But from now on, the client libraries may be released at a different time than the Keycloak server.
The client libraries are these artifacts:
Java admin client - Maven artifact org.keycloak:keycloak-admin-client
Java authorization client - Maven artifact org.keycloak:keycloak-authz-client
Java policy enforcer - Maven artifact org.keycloak:keycloak-policy-enforcer
It is possible that in the future, some more libraries will be included.
Beginning with this release, we are testing and supporting client libraries with the same server version and a few previous major server versions.
Before upgrading refer to the migration guide for a complete list of changes.
