Velocity5.0

Open standard and decentralized communication protocol for federated real-time messaging, VoIP, and IoT.

The Matrix feed is community and governance news — a board election and a Foundation leadership handoff, not product releases.

◆Current state
The feed crawled here is the Matrix.org community blog — weekly 'This Week in Matrix' digests plus Foundation governance posts — rather than a product or spec changelog. Recent entries center on the 2026 Governing Board election (candidates, voting, results) and a leadership transition, with Andy Piper announced as the next 'Thib.'
◆Where it's heading
The visible arc is organizational maturation: a completed board election seating 12 members and a handoff of the community-lead role. Protocol and client product movement isn't represented in this feed, so the digests track ecosystem and Foundation activity rather than shipped capability.
◆Prediction
Expect continued weekly TWIM digests and post-election Foundation activity under the new community lead. Confident product or spec direction can't be drawn from this feed — it would need the crawler pointed at release notes or spec changes.
