Nimbus JOSE+JWT 2.18
We just pushed a new release of the Nimbus JOSE + JWT library to Maven Central which updates the library to the latest JOSE -14 and JWT -11 drafts.
We added support for the new JWE algorithm identifiers and header parameters. Also, a few minor bugs got fixed under the hood. The Header class got two static helper method to enable parsing from JSON object strings and BASE64URLs.
The new release should reach the central repo soon, as version 2.18.
Enjoy! :)
