About BookStack
BookStack runs a disciplined security-release cadence, with occasional CalVer feature drops.
BookStack, the self-hosted documentation/wiki platform, ships on a CalVer cadence dominated by security releases — attachment permission leaks, MFA brute-force hardening, registration role-escalation fixes. Interleaved are smaller feature versions (v26.05 brought folder-permission and export-font changes). The feed reads as a maintainer prioritizing safety and steady upkeep over headline features.
