About Determined AI
Determined's release feed stops in March 2025, and its last entries are release plumbing.
Every release in the window sits in a three-week stretch of March 2025 around a single version, 0.38.1, published across enterprise, release-candidate and dry-run tags. Their contents are the release process itself: pinning aiohttp-cors because 0.8.0 broke the last Ray version supporting Python 3.8, marking release candidates as draft rather than pre-release, fixing goreleaser field keys, removing a codecov dependency, retiring preview and GKE clusters from CI, and upgrading swagger-ui. The one user-facing item is a documentation warning added to the obsolete managed-service deployment page.
