grommunio's feed publishes release pointers only; the changes themselves live on GitHub.
◆ Current state
The crawled feed carries release-note stubs from 2022 to 2026, each the same sentence pointing to GitHub for the detailed logs. 2026.06.2 is the newest, published at the end of September. Nothing in the feed states what changed in any release.
◆ Where it's heading
The only signal available is cadence, and it is thin and irregular: twelve published notes across roughly five years, with 2023.11.x, 2025.01.x and 2026.06.1 as the visible markers. That is a release-notes page maintained as an index rather than a changelog. Reading direction from grommunio would require the GitHub logs these notes point at.
◆ Prediction
Expect the next entry to be another dated pointer of the same form. Whether grommunio's real release cadence matches this feed cannot be determined from what is published here.
SlickText
5.0COMMS
SlickText's feed is all SMS buying guides; no product release has surfaced since RCS.
◆ Current state
SlickText's recent feed is entirely search content: SMS segmentation, church and nonprofit texting comparisons, Black Friday tactics, cost breakdowns and guides on annual plans. No release appears in the entries since the basic RCS addition.
◆ Where it's heading
The content is getting more explicit about buying decisions. Vertical comparison pages, published prices and an outgrown-your-platform pitch all aim at people ready to switch. Product motion cannot be read from these posts.
◆ Prediction
Expect Black Friday content through November and more vertical comparison pages. These entries give no evidence of how RCS is progressing.
