Ever Teams vs Redmine: at a glance
What is Ever Teams?
Ever Teams shipped ten tags in twelve hours and one of them touched the product
The window is ten releases published between 01:06 and 12:54 on a single day, and nine of them are continuous-integration work: runners migrated to self-hosted ARC, dead ubicloud labels replaced, the DigitalOcean deploy gated behind a flag, actions bumped to Node 24, a desktop cache bounded after it grew to 9.5 GB. The one product change is v0.133.58, which drops four unread relations from the team-wide daily-plan fetch. Several tags carry no changelog at all beyond a compare link.
What is Redmine?
Redmine hits 7.0 with a Rails 8 jump and its first webhooks, 20 years in
Redmine is a 20-year-old open-source, Rails-based project management tool that just shipped 7.0.0 on its anniversary. The 7.0 release completes the UI modernization begun in 6.0/6.1 and adds a Rails 8 migration plus webhook event triggers. In parallel, the project keeps three older branches (5.1, 6.0, 6.1) patched with coordinated security releases.

◆ Current state
The window is ten releases published between 01:06 and 12:54 on a single day, and nine of them are continuous-integration work: runners migrated to self-hosted ARC, dead ubicloud labels replaced, the DigitalOcean deploy gated behind a flag, actions bumped to Node 24, a desktop cache bounded after it grew to 9.5 GB. The one product change is v0.133.58, which drops four unread relations from the team-wide daily-plan fetch. Several tags carry no changelog at all beyond a compare link.
◆ Where it's heading
The release train is fully automated and fires on every merge, so tag count says nothing about progress here — the same CI changelog is restated verbatim across multiple tags minutes apart. What work is visible points at build infrastructure being rebuilt around self-hosted runners rather than at the application.
◆ Prediction
Until the runner migration settles, expect the tag stream to stay dominated by CI commits, with product changes appearing as occasional query-cost fixes like the daily-plan one.
Redmine
6.3PM
Redmine hits 7.0 with a Rails 8 jump and its first webhooks, 20 years in
◆ Current state
Redmine is a 20-year-old open-source, Rails-based project management tool that just shipped 7.0.0 on its anniversary. The 7.0 release completes the UI modernization begun in 6.0/6.1 and adds a Rails 8 migration plus webhook event triggers. In parallel, the project keeps three older branches (5.1, 6.0, 6.1) patched with coordinated security releases.
◆ Where it's heading
The arc is modernization plus integration: after two releases spent redesigning the interface, 7.0 resets the platform onto Rails 8 and introduces native webhooks — Redmine's first step toward the automation surface that hosted trackers already assume. The disciplined multi-branch security backporting suggests the team will keep legacy users supported rather than forcing the jump to 7.0.
◆ Prediction
Expect a 7.0.x maintenance line with bug fixes and security backports to follow the major, mirroring how 6.0 was stabilized, and incremental expansion of the new webhook triggers.
