v3.0.0-beta1

This is the first pre-release of Skuber v3.x

The key change from version 2.x is the migration from Akka 2.6.x to Pekko (https://github.com/apache/incubator-pekko). This is motivated by the change of Akka licensing model to BSL from 2.7.x on - migrating to Pekko will allay concerns that using skuber could incur Akka licensing charges in future.

Currently Pekko has no full published release, hence this pre-release uses Pekko nightly builds until a full release is available. Therefore it is not recommended to use this pre-release in production.

To migrate/test your Skuber 2.x application to this pre-release:

• rename applicable Akka imports e.g. import akka.actor.ActorSystem becomes import org.apache.pekko.actor.ActorSystem
• rename any akka section(s) of your application configuration (application.conf file) that relate to skuber to pekko.
