    Yes, there are. This was recently discussed at a CAB meeting as well.

    Typically, there are 3 or 4 updates to the Migration Toolkit for Application Binaries each year.  The latest release, version 20.0.0.2, became generally available on June 5, 2020. 

    I recently published another blog here in the Middleware Community that discusses the major updates to the binary scanner so far in 2020:  http://ibm.biz/BinaryScannerMigratesNDQoS 

    In addition to the updates discussed in the blog, we also added new rules to both the binary scanner and the WebSphere Application Server Migration Toolkit (see http://ibm.biz/WAMT4Eclipse ) for migrating to Java 14.
