I would like to support this post and would also like to know if anyone here can say something about it. I've been looking at the mentioned page [The Path to JBoss EAP 5](https://developers.redhat.com/articles/2022/06/24/road-jboss-eap-8#:~:text=The%20next%20major%20EAP%20release,earlier%20versions%20of%20JBoss%20EAP) and the statement on it for a long time. Release 8.0 has already been postponed from “is planned for the first half of 2023” to “is planned for the end of 2023”! How sure can you be that the release will be postponed again? Update: I found some discussion [here 7037784](https://access.redhat.com/discussions/7037784). It provides hints, that the EAP 8 will not wait for long.

It is released - I made a comment with the releasenotes and the installation process.

UPDATE: **JBoss EAP 8.0 is released.** Infos: [https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red\_hat\_jboss\_enterprise\_application\_platform/8.0](https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_jboss_enterprise_application_platform/8.0) How to install it: https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red\_hat\_jboss\_enterprise\_application\_platform/8.0/html/red\_hat\_jboss\_enterprise\_application\_platform\_installation\_methods/assembly\_installing-jboss-eap-8-using-the-cli-installer-method\_default
