+> Please read the [Version Notes]({{ site.wiki_url }}/Version+Notes+6.3.0) to find more details about performed
+> bug fixes and improvements.
+
+**All developers are strongly advised to perform this upgrade.**
+
+The 6.x series of the Apache Struts framework has a minimum requirement of the following specification versions:
+Servlet API 3.1, JSP API 2.1, and Java 8.
+
+Should any issues arise with your use of any version of the Struts framework, please post your comments to the user list,
+and, if appropriate, file [a tracking ticket]({{ site.jira_url }}).
+
+You can download this version from our [download](download.cgi#struts-ga) page.
