What is Document360?
Document360 rebuilt its API for agents; now it's turning the AI inward on authoring.
Monthly point releases on a steady 12.x line, each a themed bundle rather than a fix list. The last three releases rebuilt the developer-facing surface: an interactive API reference with an in-page Try It! console, a ground-up API v3 with OAuth 2.0 and scoped keys, and a Widget 2.0 embedding architecture now rolling out with a migration deadline. Around that, Eddy AI and the MCP server have been gaining governance controls — reader-group restrictions, workflow permissions, usage analytics — more often than new capabilities.
What is SOGo?
SOGo's release notes have become a vulnerability disclosure channel with a version number attached.
SOGo is a self-hosted groupware suite — webmail, calendaring and contacts — maintained by Alinto. Four of the last six releases exist primarily to fix security vulnerabilities: XSS through malicious mail, SQL injection, OpenID impersonation, script execution via theme and hint query parameters. The newest, 5.12.10, fixes four more and states that all previous versions are affected, with CVE identifiers still pending at publication.

6.3COLLAB
Document360 rebuilt its API for agents; now it's turning the AI inward on authoring.
◆ Current state
Monthly point releases on a steady 12.x line, each a themed bundle rather than a fix list. The last three releases rebuilt the developer-facing surface: an interactive API reference with an in-page Try It! console, a ground-up API v3 with OAuth 2.0 and scoped keys, and a Widget 2.0 embedding architecture now rolling out with a migration deadline. Around that, Eddy AI and the MCP server have been gaining governance controls — reader-group restrictions, workflow permissions, usage analytics — more often than new capabilities.
◆ Where it's heading
Two threads run through the year. One makes the knowledge base machine-readable and machine-writable: MCP server, automatic llms.txt, open-an-article-in-ChatGPT-or-Claude, then API v3. The other fences that access with admin controls before enterprise buyers have to ask. The newest release turns the AI inward for the first time — the redesigned Publish dialog puts suggestions and validation in the author's path rather than the reader's, which is a different customer for the same capability.
◆ Prediction
The AI suggestions now sitting in the Publish dialog are the obvious candidate to move into the editor itself, and the advanced v3 endpoints sold as an add-on look like the seed of a higher API tier. The Widget 2.0 forced migration is the near-term execution risk, since it puts required technical work on existing customers to a fixed timeline.

2.5COLLAB
SOGo's release notes have become a vulnerability disclosure channel with a version number attached.
◆ Current state
SOGo is a self-hosted groupware suite — webmail, calendaring and contacts — maintained by Alinto. Four of the last six releases exist primarily to fix security vulnerabilities: XSS through malicious mail, SQL injection, OpenID impersonation, script execution via theme and hint query parameters. The newest, 5.12.10, fixes four more and states that all previous versions are affected, with CVE identifiers still pending at publication.
◆ Where it's heading
The pattern is a codebase whose input-handling surface is being systematically probed, largely by the community reporting to the project's bug address, and patched in batches. Release numbering has stopped being reliable as a timeline — 5.12.7 shipped after 5.12.8 — so version order tells you nothing about what a deployment contains. The two non-security releases in this window were both regression repairs from the security releases that preceded them, which is the cost of shipping fixes at this cadence.
◆ Prediction
Given four security batches in five months and CVE identifiers still being assigned retroactively, another batch on the same cadence is the most likely next release, with a regression patch following it.
