The latest version of SBDG 1.2 is already in RC stage. Which means the dependent Geode version cannot be changed any more. Currently SBDG 1.2 is based on Geode 1.9. This will not change. Patch versions to 1.9 are supported, but not changes to 1.10 or later.

THUS,

Once SBDG 1.3 (Neuman) is released, it will be based on the latest GA of Geode, which at this point would be 1.10 or possibly 1.11 depending on release cycles.

In addition...

@Aaron, Whilst it would also be possible to override the underlying Geode version that SBDG uses, to a later version, I would just like to point out that all testing of SBDG will be against a named supported version of Geode / GemFire. Which means, if failures arise using SBDG / SDG with a non-supported version of Geode / GemFire would effectively be unsupported. (due diligence to confirm origin of failure will of course be applied)

Hope this helps...

Assuming Geode 1.10 is released with the three logging fixes in Kirk’s message, 
can the next GA release of Spring Boot Data Geode consume 1.10 instead of 1.9? 
Also, when would SBDG need this patch release by (whether we do a 1.9.1 release 
or 1.10 release)?

If we release a 1.9.1 I'd like to include the SSL/NIO fix. Cluster SSL

Geode and Spring Boot to ensure a smoother User experience out-of-the box.
They have very near-future releases that need this as soon as possible.

The specific tickets and commits that would be back-ported are:

*1. GEODE-7058 Log4j-core dependency should be optional in geode-core*

commit 413800bc16d05df689a2af5c30797f180aad6088

     GEODE-7058: Mark log4j-core optional in geode-core

     Note: this change requires all commits from GEODE-2644 and GEODE-6122.

*2. GEODE-7050 Log4jAgent should avoid casting non-log4j loggers*

commit e5c9c420f462149fd062847904e3435fbe99afb4

     GEODE-7050: Use Log4jAgent only if Log4j is using Log4jProvider (#3892)

     This change prevents Geode from using Log4jAgent if Log4j Core is
     present but not using Log4jProvider.

     For example, Log4j uses SLF4JProvider when log4j-to-slf4j is in the
    classpath.

     By disabling Log4jAgent when other Log4j Providers are in use, this
     prevents problems such as ClassCastExceptions when attemping to cast
     loggers from org.apache.logging.slf4j.SLF4JLogger to
     org.apache.logging.log4j.core.Logger to get the LoggerConfig or
     LoggerContext.

*3. GEODE-6959 NPE if AlertAppender is not defined*

commit dd15fec1f2ecbc3bc0cdfc42072252c379e0bb89
Author: Kirk Lund <kl...@apache.org>
Date:   Thu Aug 8 14:59:44 2019 -0700

     GEODE-6959: Prevent NPE in GMSMembershipManager for null AlertAppender
(#3899)

     If a custom log4j2.xml is used without specifying the Geode
AlertAppender,
     GMSMembershipManager may throw a NullPointerException when invoking
     AlertAppender.getInstance().stopSession() during a forceDisconnect. This
     change prevents the NullPointerException allowing forceDisconnect to
finish.

     Users using Spring Boot with Logback are more likely to hit this bug.
