What is Document360?
Document360's Eddy AI now summarizes what changed between article versions.
Document360 ships a knowledge-base release roughly every week, with its Eddy AI assistant in most of them. 12.10.2 adds AI summaries of differences between article versions, customizable reader feedback options, per-widget link behaviour settings and a central Engage dashboard to reuse and localize guides and videos. The prior release added source citations to Eddy AI answers and consolidated SSO setup.
What is Elgg?
Elgg ships paired 7.1.2 and 6.3.9 patches: both branches stay in maintenance mode.
Elgg is a mature open-source PHP framework for self-hosted community platforms. The 7.0 major shipped in May 2026, and 7.1.0 in September added invitation-only groups, header images for generic entities and a MariaDB recommendation. 7.1.1 fixed profile access display and trash recovery, and on October 21 Elgg shipped 7.1.2 and 6.3.9 together, both with no release notes beyond the contributor list.

Document360's Eddy AI now summarizes what changed between article versions.
◆ Current state
Document360 ships a knowledge-base release roughly every week, with its Eddy AI assistant in most of them. 12.10.2 adds AI summaries of differences between article versions, customizable reader feedback options, per-widget link behaviour settings and a central Engage dashboard to reuse and localize guides and videos. The prior release added source citations to Eddy AI answers and consolidated SSO setup.
◆ Where it's heading
Eddy AI is spreading from the reader-facing chatbot into the authoring and review workflow, with analytics, citations and now change summaries. Engage is being built out as a separate asset layer of guides and videos with its own localization and credit-based AI voiceovers.
◆ Prediction
Expect more AI help in the review and publishing flow, such as approvals or suggested fixes driven by version summaries.
Elgg
5.0COLLAB
Elgg ships paired 7.1.2 and 6.3.9 patches: both branches stay in maintenance mode.
◆ Current state
Elgg is a mature open-source PHP framework for self-hosted community platforms. The 7.0 major shipped in May 2026, and 7.1.0 in September added invitation-only groups, header images for generic entities and a MariaDB recommendation. 7.1.1 fixed profile access display and trash recovery, and on October 21 Elgg shipped 7.1.2 and 6.3.9 together, both with no release notes beyond the contributor list.
◆ Where it's heading
Elgg follows a predictable cadence: a feature minor, then single-digit patch releases, with paired backports on the 6.3 branch. The 7.1 features centred on finer access control and generic entity handling, and the follow-up patches stay in those areas. The project favours stability over pace.
◆ Prediction
More 7.1.x patches are likely, released in pairs with 6.3.x as happened again today. The entries give no signal about what a 7.2 would contain.
