What is Kill Bill?

Kill Bill keeps hardening invoice reliability on its mature 0.24 line

Kill Bill is in steady maintenance on the 0.24.x branch. Recent releases concentrate on invoice-failure handling — retries, account parking, and uniform WARN logging — plus catalog and subscription edge-case fixes. This is reliability work on a mature open-source billing core.

What is Zluri?

Zluri is hardening into a compliance-grade access-governance platform.

Zluri is methodically building out identity governance (IGA) on top of its SaaS-management roots. Recent releases revamped certification setup into a single guided flow, added per-application request-form customization, and — the standout — let access reviews start from users rather than only from apps or groups. The latest work (approver notes from email, a refreshed Groups module with dedicated user and app views) refines that foundation.

Kill Bill keeps hardening invoice reliability on its mature 0.24 line

◆ Current state

Kill Bill is in steady maintenance on the 0.24.x branch. Recent releases concentrate on invoice-failure handling — retries, account parking, and uniform WARN logging — plus catalog and subscription edge-case fixes. This is reliability work on a mature open-source billing core.

◆ Where it's heading

The arc is operational robustness rather than new features: making invoice processing fail predictably, tightening lock-failure retries, and improving observability. A platform whose users run it as critical billing infrastructure rewards exactly this.

◆ Prediction

Expect continued 0.24.x point releases focused on invoicing/catalog correctness and logging, with no major architectural shift in the near term.

5.0

Zluri is hardening into a compliance-grade access-governance platform.

◆ Current state

Zluri is methodically building out identity governance (IGA) on top of its SaaS-management roots. Recent releases revamped certification setup into a single guided flow, added per-application request-form customization, and — the standout — let access reviews start from users rather than only from apps or groups. The latest work (approver notes from email, a refreshed Groups module with dedicated user and app views) refines that foundation.

◆ Where it's heading

The direction is clear: turn SaaS visibility into auditable access governance for enterprise compliance. The building blocks — user-, app-, and group-scoped certifications, recurring reviews, customizable request forms, login IP restrictions — are converging into an end-to-end access-review and remediation suite aimed at recurring audits like annual contractor reviews.

◆ Prediction

Expect the approver-notes beta to reach general availability and continued consolidation of the certification flows (user, app, group) into one cohesive review experience.
