Wakapi
A critical auth bypass lands in the middle of Wakapi's slow identity rebuild.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Ever Teams and Planify — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Ever Teams shipped ten tags in twelve hours and one of them touched the product
The window is ten releases published between 01:06 and 12:54 on a single day, and nine of them are continuous-integration work: runners migrated to self-hosted ARC, dead ubicloud labels replaced, the DigitalOcean deploy gated behind a flag, actions bumped to Node 24, a desktop cache bounded after it grew to 9.5 GB. The one product change is v0.133.58, which drops four unread relations from the team-wide daily-plan fetch. Several tags carry no changelog at all beyond a compare link.
A GNOME task app that has turned CalDAV interoperability into the product.
Planify is a GTK task manager for GNOME on a fast release train — six releases in the window shown, most of them sync work. The 4.19 line spent nearly all its effort making CalDAV survive real servers: Mailbox.org, Open-Xchange, Posteo, Nextcloud Deck, and DAVx5 on Android each got a named fix. Feature work still lands, but alongside the sync repairs rather than instead of them.

The release train is fully automated and fires on every merge, so tag count says nothing about progress here — the same CI changelog is restated verbatim across multiple tags minutes apart. What work is visible points at build infrastructure being rebuilt around self-hosted runners rather than at the application.
Until the runner migration settles, expect the tag stream to stay dominated by CI commits, with product changes appearing as occasional query-cost fixes like the daily-plan one.

The direction shows in what gets fixed. Planify is positioning as the GNOME client that works against whatever CalDAV server you already run, not a client for one service — sync-token fallbacks, ETag retries, and CDATA parsing are all compatibility debt paid down per-server. The second thread is pushing into the desktop itself: a Shell search provider, system accent color, a CLI. Both are the same bet, that the app's value is behaving well inside an existing setup.
Expect another CalDAV compatibility pass naming a specific server next, since four of the last six releases took that shape. Feature work will most likely extend the backup and section support added in 4.19.2 rather than open a new area.
