What is Casdoor?

Casdoor is spending its release cadence moving auth checks from the client to the server

Casdoor is in a tight patch cadence: six tagged releases inside a week, most carrying a single commit. The substance is concentrated in identity enforcement rather than features - password rotation and MFA setup are now enforced server-side, admin updates to a user respect the column whitelist, sessions and tokens are revoked when a user is forbidden, and phone numbers are normalised before they are stored. The remainder is release plumbing and a PostgreSQL query fix.

What is Langfuse?

Langfuse promotes Experiments out from under Datasets, making evaluation the primary workflow.

Langfuse's recent work is concentrated almost entirely on the evaluation surface. Experiments were rebuilt as a top-level feature that runs with or without a dataset attached, and can be compared across runs over time. The LLM-as-a-Judge evaluator gained categorical scores in late March and boolean true/false scores a week later, filling out the score types beyond plain numerics. Everything else in the window is documentation or scrape artifacts.

Casdoor is spending its release cadence moving auth checks from the client to the server

◆ Current state

Casdoor is in a tight patch cadence: six tagged releases inside a week, most carrying a single commit. The substance is concentrated in identity enforcement rather than features - password rotation and MFA setup are now enforced server-side, admin updates to a user respect the column whitelist, sessions and tokens are revoked when a user is forbidden, and phone numbers are normalised before they are stored. The remainder is release plumbing and a PostgreSQL query fix.

◆ Where it's heading

Read together, these commits describe one job: closing the gap between what the console enforces and what the backend enforces. Several of them move a check that previously lived in the UI into the server, which is the work of a project being deployed into environments that audit it. New authentication providers and integrations have thinned relative to this hardening pass.

◆ Prediction

The next releases most likely continue the same sweep - remaining endpoints where an admin or user request is trusted more than the server verifies - rather than adding a new identity provider.

Langfuse promotes Experiments out from under Datasets, making evaluation the primary workflow.

◆ Current state

Langfuse's recent work is concentrated almost entirely on the evaluation surface. Experiments were rebuilt as a top-level feature that runs with or without a dataset attached, and can be compared across runs over time. The LLM-as-a-Judge evaluator gained categorical scores in late March and boolean true/false scores a week later, filling out the score types beyond plain numerics. Everything else in the window is documentation or scrape artifacts.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is evaluation as the product's centre of gravity rather than an appendage to tracing. Decoupling Experiments from Datasets removes the setup cost of running an eval, and the widening score types let judges express verdicts rather than only magnitudes — both point at teams running evals continuously against live traces instead of curated fixtures. Regional expansion shows up in the feed as Langfuse Cloud Japan. Cadence is the open question: nothing has published since April 21, so this arc is described from a three-month-old window.

◆ Prediction

The score-type buildout and the run-comparison view are converging on scheduled or triggered evaluations against production traces, but the feed has been silent long enough that the next move cannot be called with confidence from these entries alone.
