About Weblate
Weblate wires workspace teams to your identity provider, after making workspaces carry rules.
Weblate ships monthly 2026.x feature releases with point releases a week or so later. Since June the work has centered on Workspaces: grouping, then shared translation memory and metrics, then inherited checks and the Automation add-on in 2026.10. The 2026.10.1 point release adds opt-in team sync from identity providers, including GitLab group mapping.
