GitHub has released the Copilot SDK in technical preview, allowing developers to embed Copilot’s agentic execution loop into their own applications. The SDK supports multiple AI models, real-time streaming, and languages like Python, TypeScript, Go, and .NET, but currently requires a Copilot subscription and is intended for development and testing rather than production use.

VillageSQL is a drop-in, open-source fork of MySQL that introduces a true extension framework, enabling permissionless innovation for AI-era workloads. It allows developers to add custom data types and functions - with vector indexing and search on the roadmap - bringing MySQL closer to PostgreSQL-style extensibility without waiting for core upstream changes.

MinIO has marked its open-source GitHub repository as "THIS REPOSITORY IS NO LONGER MAINTAINED," effectively ending active community development. The company is shifting focus to AIStor, its subscription-based enterprise object storage platform. The code remains available under AGPLv3, but future innovation and support are centered on the commercial product.
