Apr 1, 2026

April 2026—Delivered substantial attribution accuracy, code quality improvements, security hardening, and reliability enhancements across two Ort projects. Key features delivered include Mailmap standardization for contributor attribution, and SBOM UI enhancements enabling clickable descriptions. Code quality improvements included migrating sealed classes to sealed interfaces to improve type safety. Security hardening focused on restricting large object access to WRITE and fixing a PostgreSQL upgrade issue by ensuring output streams are closed after copying large objects. Broader CI and data workflows were stabilized via pinned Qodana linter, OSS Index integration updates aligned with Sonatype Guide, SCANOSS client support for vulnerability data, and expanded test coverage for OSV and Conan integrations. Collectively these changes improve attribution clarity, maintainability, security, reliability, and data integrity, delivering tangible business value and smoother governance.

March 2026

Mar 1, 2026

March 2026 focused on modernizing Ort by upgrading the Java baseline to Java 25, delivering performance and compatibility improvements across build and runtime. This upgrade drives prepare-for-growth in downstream integrations while introducing a breaking change in bytecode level (69) that requires users to migrate to Java 25. Packaging tooling (Gradle, GradleInspector, and SBT) now defaults to Java 25, with migration guidance to minimize disruption.
