What’s New in Antora 3.1
Antora 3.1.9
Release date: 2024.07.05 | Issue label: 3.1.9
The focus of this release is to fix changes from the previous release that did not adhere to semantic versioning. First, the file publisher was updated to work with a virtual file created by vinyl 3, thus fixing compatibility with the PDF extension. Second, an Asciidoctor extension registered as an Antora extension will be registered rather than skipped, though a warning will still be issued.
