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 Timely?
Timely is grinding down the friction between tracked time and the tools it has to reconcile with.
Timely ships a steady biweekly changelog centered on three areas: AutoSheet reliability, bulk administrative actions, and integration fidelity with Jira, monday.com, Microsoft Teams, Gmail and Google Calendar. The recent run is corrective and administrative rather than expansive — duplicate client handling on import, undoable CSV imports and bulk moves, project pickers that default to your own work, and repeated fixes to capture gaps in Teams phone calls and high-volume Gmail days.

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.
Timely
5.0INFRA · APIS
Timely is grinding down the friction between tracked time and the tools it has to reconcile with.
◆ Current state
Timely ships a steady biweekly changelog centered on three areas: AutoSheet reliability, bulk administrative actions, and integration fidelity with Jira, monday.com, Microsoft Teams, Gmail and Google Calendar. The recent run is corrective and administrative rather than expansive — duplicate client handling on import, undoable CSV imports and bulk moves, project pickers that default to your own work, and repeated fixes to capture gaps in Teams phone calls and high-volume Gmail days.
◆ Where it's heading
The product is being hardened for larger workspaces, where the old defaults broke down: full-workspace project lists became unusable, imports collided on names, and a single mis-click across many entries had no path back. Undo is becoming a standard affordance across destructive bulk actions. On the capture side, the recurring theme is that automatic tracking is only as good as its worst integration, and most effort goes to closing the cases where activity silently failed to appear.
◆ Prediction
Expect continued work on integration capture reliability and more bulk operations gaining the same ten-second undo pattern, rather than new tracking surfaces.
