March 2026 focused on delivering a robust enhancement to CuraEngine GCode generation by introducing a formula parser and improving extruder end-code handling. The work included a critical refactor to use std::string for safer string handling and a dedicated method to finalize extruder end-code by resolving end-code variables. This release aligns with upstream changes, improves reliability of generated GCode, and reduces maintenance risk through safer code.

October 2025: Focused on UI terminology alignment in Ultimaker Cura. Delivered a localization improvement by replacing the term 'deepness' with 'depth' in multi-material painting depth labels, enhancing clarity and consistency for users and translations. This change strengthens the localization foundation for future i18n work and reduces UI confusion around depth terminology.
