LibreCAD's October 2.2.1.6 patch is its first real release since May.

cadopen-sourcemaintenance-releasestranslationspackaging
◆Current state
Most LibreCAD entries are automated master-build markers, release-candidate re-cuts and a pinned download post. Real releases are 2.2.1.x patches every few months: 2.2.1.4 in March, 2.2.1.5 in May with a translation overhaul, and 2.2.1.6 on October 17 with backported features and fixes for drawing integrity.
◆Where it's heading
The stable 2.2.1 series is in maintenance, with backports from master arriving every few months. Development on master continues without a dated next minor in the feed.
◆Prediction
Further 2.2.1.x patches are the likeliest releases; a new minor is not signalled in the feed.

    Latest build from master branch

    An automated development build marker from master, carrying only a commit hash and the standard download links. It is a re-crawl of the same rolling entry that appears earlier in the feed, not a release.

    2.2.1.5 stable: translation overhaul and bug fixes

    The most recent real release in this window: a stable maintenance update centered on translation work, assorted bug fixes, and a new crash handler. It is the clearest evidence that active effort is going into international usability rather than drawing features.
