Zeebe's Optimize 8.6 and 8.7 lines drop a distrusted root CA

workflow-orchestrationbpmnjavacamundarelease-train
◆Current state
Zeebe, Camunda's workflow engine, has its first 8.11 alpha out while 8.10 is on the patch track. On 6 November the Optimize 8.6.29 and 8.7.31 patches removed the emSign Root CA - G1 from the image trust stores, and 8.6.29 also stops double gzip decoding in the OpenSearch client.
◆Where it's heading
The release train runs three tracks at once: 8.11 alphas with job-worker fixes and cluster secrets, 8.10 patches, and Optimize maintenance on 8.6 and 8.7. Optimize patches are mostly trust-store and dependency hygiene.
◆Prediction
The next notable release is likely 8.11.0-alpha2, following the RC-then-alpha pattern seen in October.
