Hibox's feed now advertises free nonprofit training rather than product changes.
◆ Current state
Hibox's feed no longer covers its collaboration product. Since February it has carried nonprofit software guides on outcomes reporting, board roles and grants, and the latest item, on June 10, is a page offering free harassment-prevention training to nonprofits.
◆ Where it's heading
The source has become a nonprofit marketing channel, so it says nothing about the product itself. Publication is irregular, with no items since June.
◆ Prediction
The feed gives no basis for predicting a product move.

Lidarr starts a 3.2 pre-release while 3.1 gains host and network checks
◆ Current state
Lidarr ships small maintenance releases every few weeks. 3.1.6 on the stable branch improves Allowed Hosts and Trusted Networks handling and logging, adds release year detection and fixes Freebox imports. A 3.2.0 pre-release followed with wildcard IP support in Allowed Hosts, indexer-recommended page sizes and periodic cache cleanup.
◆ Where it's heading
The *arr projects are rolling out the same host-validation settings together, and many of Lidarr's fixes are the same commits shipped in Prowlarr. The 3.2 bump is a version step, not a feature release, in what the notes show.
◆ Prediction
A stable 3.2.0 is the likely next entry, given the pre-release has been out since late October.
