Not announced. Gutenberg 24.4 has not been officially announced. This is our forecast, built from the evidence below.

The last 8 gaps between Gutenberg releases ran 14 to 21 days, typically 14 days. The latest line, 24.3, came out on 28 October 2026.

What we know so far

How well has this method worked?

We replayed 20 past releases of this product using only what was known the day before each one, and measured the miss. The typical miss was 0 days, and the real date fell inside our window 85% of the time (we claimed about 67%).

This is a replay of the past, not a live forecast, and it is a small sample. It is shown so you can judge the method. Live forecasts are on the track record.
