Mautic
Mautic patches remote code execution in campaign import across three supported branches.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Joomla and Repurpose.io — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Joomla 6.2 is out, and every branch now ships patches in lockstep.
Joomla 6.2.0 shipped on 13 October after two release candidates, with more than 116 merged pull requests including a refactored MVCFactory, Crypt package deprecation and build tooling. The 5.4 line released 5.4.10 the same day with an API PATCH timezone fix and banner access checks, and late September brought paired security releases, 5.4.9 and 6.1.4.
Repurpose now pulls images from Google Drive and posts them to seven networks
Repurpose has moved well past video clips. The October release made Google Drive an image source, publishing single images or whole folders as carousels to TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Snapchat, Pinterest, X and LinkedIn, with captions taken from text files or descriptions. Pinterest, LinkedIn and X gained image support, and agencies got one invite link for onboarding creators. Earlier came photo and carousel repurposing, Facebook as an image source, and a rebuilt onboarding flow.

The project runs three lines on one calendar: a feature minor on 6.x, security and bug patches on 6.1 and 5.4, all released together. 6.2 is mostly framework work aimed at Joomla 7, with deprecations now targeted at version 7. Several fixes are tagged [AI], meaning contributors used AI tools to write them.
With 6.2 out, 6.1 maintenance should wind down while 6.2.x patches start on the same paired schedule as 5.4. Further deprecations ahead of Joomla 7 are the likely theme of the next minor.

Format coverage keeps widening from video to the static and mixed posts that make up most social output, and destinations now reach beyond Meta and TikTok. The agency invite link points at a second buyer: teams managing many creators.
More agency tooling is a plausible next step after the invite link; the entries do not name upcoming platforms.
