phpList shows renewed 3.7.0 release-candidate activity after a long dormant stretch.

email-marketingopen-sourcerelease-candidatesslow-cadencelow-detail-feed
Current state
The feed is GitHub release tags, but the entries carry almost no detail — recent ones are just 'Release Candidate N for version 3.7.0.' After a gap stretching back to 2024, two 3.7.0 RCs landed in June 2026, signaling the project is moving toward a 3.7.0 release.
Where it's heading
Development cadence is slow and bursty: a long quiet period followed by RC3 and RC4 within days. The crawl source yields contentless tags, so the substance of 3.7.0 isn't visible here — only that it's progressing through release candidates.
Prediction
Expect a stable 3.7.0 release to follow the RC sequence, though the feed gives no detail on what it contains.
