Website updates for the Java Agent 9.7.0 release (GitHub release, published 2026-08-14).

Changes

  • New event post content/events/release-apache-skywalking-java-agent-9-7-0/index.md — user-facing changelog from CHANGES.md at the v9.7.0 tag. Excludes the test-only (test/plugin/run.sh) and build-only (release script) entries per the usual convention.
  • data/releases.yml — 9.7.0 added at the top of both source and distribution, using closer.cgi / downloads.apache.org; 9.6.0's links demoted to archive.apache.org.
  • data/docs.ymlLatest and a new v9.7.0 entry both set to 7a6c1e46c9c8ee7f26988caf57c5023c1ff4fb42, the dereferenced v9.7.0 tag commit.
  • Drive-by fix — the 9.6.0 post linked skywalking-java/milestone/10, which is the 9.0.0 milestone. Corrected to skywalking/milestone/242 ("Java - 9.6.0"), matching its CHANGES.md and every other Java release post.

Note before merging

The Apache dist mirror has not synced 9.7.0 yet — downloads.apache.org/skywalking/java-agent/ still tops out at 9.6.0. The new closer.cgi and downloads.apache.org links will 404 until the artifacts are published to dist.

Add the 9.7.0 release event post, list 9.7.0 in releases.yml (demoting the
9.6.0 links to archive.apache.org), and point docs.yml Latest plus a new
v9.7.0 entry at the v9.7.0 tag commit.

Also fix the 9.6.0 post's milestone link, which pointed at
skywalking-java/milestone/10 (the 9.0.0 milestone) instead of the
Java - 9.6.0 milestone its CHANGES.md references.
