6.1.0.RC1

The Lettuce team is delighted to announce the availability of Lettuce 6.1 RC1.

This is a massive release thanks to all the community contributions. This release ships mostly with command updates to support Redis 6.2.
Besides that, Lettuce publishes now events to Java Flight Recorder if your Java runtime supports JFR events (JDK 8 update 262 or later).

Lettuce 6 supports Redis 2.6+ up to Redis 6.x. In terms of Java runtime, Lettuce requires at least Java 8 and works with Java 16.
Thanks to all contributors who made Lettuce 6.1.0.RC1 possible.
