About GLPI
GLPI 12 is in release-candidate polish, and rc2 and rc3 changed nothing in the headline scope.
GLPI is three release candidates into its 12.0 major version, with rc1 through rc3 published roughly two weeks apart. The announced scope is the same in all three: a reworked knowledge base, a sessions manager, sudo mode, a reworked OLA model, broad security hardening against SQL injection and CSRF, and some accessibility work. Each RC carries an explicit warning not to use it in production.
