EDG opens its industrial C++ compiler front end under Apache 2.0 after three decades
The EDG front end moved from commercial licences to a public repository and C++ Alliance stewardship on September 30. A fresh October 20 statement confirms permissive commercial reuse, experienced maintainers and work still needed on reflection, coroutines and back ends.

WordPress 7.2 will disable MySQL NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES for its own connections
WordPress 7.2 adds NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES to wpdb's incompatible SQL modes. It's a targeted fix for escaping failures, not a server-wide setting or blanket SQL injection cure.
pgBackRest 2.60 makes corrupt-page checks block restores and backup expiry by default
A safer default can surprise an incident-response runbook: pgBackRest 2.60 aborts restores with invalid page checksums and refuses certain backup expirations. Here's what operators should test.

Codeberg Pages v2 shuts down December 31 — static sites need a git-pages migration
A hard shutdown date makes this more than a hosting refresh: unmigrated Codeberg Pages sites will go offline, and the replacement changes deployment and URL behaviour.

Neon opens live SQL subscriptions in Realtime beta — but row-level security is not ready
Live SQL subscriptions, a React/TypeScript SDK and scale-to-zero integration are available in four regions. Realtime is free during beta, but compute and egress still cost money, row-level security is absent, and the protocol is changing.
