What is listmonk?
Only signal in window is an automated nightly build — no curated release to read

Only signal in window is an automated nightly build — no curated release to read
◆ Current state
The single recent entry is an automated nightly build from the master branch, flagged as potentially unstable. It carries no curated changelog, so there's no user-facing signal to interpret.
◆ Where it's heading
A lone nightly build provides no directional information. listmonk's substantive changes surface in versioned stable releases, none of which fall in this window.
◆ Prediction
Unclear from a nightly build alone; the next meaningful signal would be a tagged stable release with an actual changelog.
MailBeez
5.0MKT AUTO
MailBeez V5 arrives with a redesigned workspace, dark mode and V5-ready modules.
◆ Current state
MailBeez is an email-marketing plugin for Zen Cart and similar shops. After weeks of 4.9.99 patches and module compatibility updates, V5 shipped with V5.0.1 on November 11: a redesigned workspace with clearer insights, dark mode and simpler navigation, plus V5 support across opt-out, web view, bounce handling, review importers and throttling modules.
◆ Where it's heading
The V5 rewrite that started with the September addon wave and the MAIA assistant is now the default experience. Releases should shift from compatibility work toward features built on the new workspace.
◆ Prediction
Expect quick 5.0.x fix releases and further modules gaining V5 support; whether MAIA gets deeper use in the new workspace is not yet clear from the entries.
