Glances
Glances 4.5.9 closes out the 4.x line as a 5.0 beta opens for testing.
A side-by-side editorial comparison of OpenCTI and Apache StreamPark — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
OpenCTI adds custom fields to cases and backports its draft-access fix to both LTS lines.
OpenCTI 7.261106.0 adds custom fields and templates to Cases and Incidents, a configurable de-duplication window for sightings, blog post items and form intake for view-only users, plus Elasticsearch query speedups. The same week, LTS 7.260811.0-lts.2 and 7.260309.0-lts.9 backport the security fixes from the main line: draft-context checks on TAXII and HTTP routes, a timeout for JSONPath ingestion scripts and a size cap on artifact imports.
Five release candidates in two years, none of them stable, and none since October 2025.
StreamPark's tracked feed holds five release candidates spanning April 2024 to October 2025, and the notes are extremely thin — three of the five describe a single change each, one of them a Vue router naming bug. The most substantial entry, v2.1.7-rc1, lists four items: Maven argument validation, a license header consistency fix, a login authentication refinement and a Flink configuration file retrieval fix. No stable release appears anywhere in this record.

The main line keeps adding analyst and case-management features every few days, while two LTS lines get the security fixes. Case management is gaining configurability, after custom views and Hub imports in late October.
Expect further case and incident customization in the next main releases and another LTS round when security fixes land.

Nothing in these entries describes new capability for the stream processing platform itself. The changes cluster around build tooling, authentication and the web console — the periphery of the product rather than its Flink and Spark job management core. Combined with a cadence of roughly two releases a year and a nine-month gap since the last one, the visible signal is a project in low-activity maintenance.
The entries do not support a prediction about direction. What they do warrant is checking whether development moved somewhere this feed does not capture, since a stream processing platform with no stable releases on record is more likely a tracking gap than a complete picture.
