This is a maintenance release coming with bug fixes for CompatibleFieldSerializer and the versioned artifact.

In Kryo 5.1.0, a direct dependency on the unversioned JAR accidentally made it into the POM for the versioned artifact (see #825). If you are using the versioned artifact, upgrading to 5.1.1 is recommended.

#822: Fix #821 Support closures when validating types in CompatibleFieldSerializer #824: Fix #823 Fix ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException in binary search logic #825: Remove direct dependency from versioned artifact

The full list of changes can be found here.
