What is Forgejo?

Forgejo keeps patching its v15 stable line, now at v15.0.11.

Forgejo's newest tracked release is v15.0.11, two weeks after v15.0.10. Before that the feed jumped from v11.0.16 in July, with no v12–v14 releases in between. Release entries only link to external notes, so the specific changes in each patch aren't visible here.

What is Redocly?

Redocly's reunite.agent gets per-duty cron schedules, rules and source repos.

Redocly shipped three Reunite releases and a config release on Oct 28. The feedback and discovery duties in reunite.agent can now each run on their own UTC cron trigger, follow their own rules and read only listed source repositories. SCIM provisioning now accepts identity-provider groups of any size, where pushes over 1,000 members used to fail. @redocly/config 0.69.0 also adds per-rule impact settings for the experimental diff command.

5.0

Forgejo keeps patching its v15 stable line, now at v15.0.11.

◆ Current state

Forgejo's newest tracked release is v15.0.11, two weeks after v15.0.10. Before that the feed jumped from v11.0.16 in July, with no v12–v14 releases in between. Release entries only link to external notes, so the specific changes in each patch aren't visible here.

◆ Where it's heading

The point-release rhythm continues: v11.0.x shipped roughly monthly from January to July, and v15 is now on its eleventh patch at a similar pace. Jumping four major versions in three months suggests majors are cut often and each branch then gets a patch series. Without the release notes, whether those majors bring large feature changes is unclear.

◆ Prediction

The likely next entry is v15.0.12 in two to four weeks. The entries don't show whether the v11 maintenance branch is still receiving fixes.

Redocly's reunite.agent gets per-duty cron schedules, rules and source repos.

◆ Current state

Redocly shipped three Reunite releases and a config release on Oct 28. The feedback and discovery duties in reunite.agent can now each run on their own UTC cron trigger, follow their own rules and read only listed source repositories. SCIM provisioning now accepts identity-provider groups of any size, where pushes over 1,000 members used to fail. @redocly/config 0.69.0 also adds per-rule impact settings for the experimental diff command.

◆ Where it's heading

Two threads run together: an agent inside Reunite that does recurring docs work (feedback and discovery) and is gaining scheduling and scoping controls, and enterprise plumbing such as SCIM scale, Git token rotation and permission fixes. Last week's configurable docs MCP server points the same way, with Redocly adding AI surfaces and making them configurable in redocly.yaml.

◆ Prediction

Expect more reunite.agent duty types or options in @redocly/config, and the experimental diff command moving toward a documented API-change check.
