Week 14, year 2025
- MediatR 12.5.0 Released - I pushed out MediatR 12.5 today: Release Notes NuGet This is mainly a regular minor release with a couple extra interesting features: Adding convenience method to register open behaviors Better cancellation token support (it's passed now everywhere including behaviors) And some other cleanup items as well. Enjoy! [Jimmy Bogard]
- I've been kidnapped by Robert Caro - I've always enjoyed reading, and for most of my life I've particularly enjoyed reading history. I've head many great things about Robert Caro's books, but was deterred by their size. Finally, with his first book newly available as an ebook, I decided to dip my toes in. The books are too good for me to escape. [Martin Fowler]
- AutoMapper and MediatR Going Commercial - Yes, another one of "those posts". But tl;dr: In order to ensure the long-term sustainability of my OSS projects, I will be commercializing AutoMapper and MediatR. I did not post this on April 1st for obvious reasons.

- Social Media Engagement in Early 2025 - A few years ago, whenever I published a new article here, I would just announce it on Twitter, but since the Muskover its importance has declined, and now I post updates to several services. To compare engagement on these services, I've looked at reposts, likes, and replies to two dozen of my recent posts. [Martin Fowler]
- Updating yesterday's post on social media engagement - Some people asked about how many people clicked through the links on these social media posts. I've added some more to the article, partly to explain why I don't have that information, and partly to show overall source data for traffic to the site. [Martin Fowler]
