Adds the Plumber 1.5 release note, following the structure of the 1.4 one: hero image, tagline, a section per feature with a "What you get" list, minor updates, and the versions admonition.

The two features

Dynamic portfolios - a portfolio can follow a GitLab group instead of being maintained by hand. It picks up projects created later, follows the whole subtree, and still supports hand-picked projects and per-project exclusions that can be undone.

Technology and topic filters on policies - a policy can be narrowed to the projects a rule actually applies to, by language share (for example Go at 40% or more) or by GitLab topic (for example prod, matched case-insensitively). Both can be combined with all/any. Only projects are filtered; targeted groups stay governed as picked.

Versions

  • Backend v2.43.1
  • Frontend v2.37.1
  • Helm chart v1.5.0

These match the platform release PR getplumber/platform#56.

Hero image

Generated to match the existing house style (1200x630, same gradient, logo and wordmark), with only the version subtitle changed from "1.4 Release" to "1.5 Release". Happy to swap it for a designed one if you prefer.

Checks

Frontmatter validated against the blog collection schema (title, description, authors, pubDate, heroImage all present; plumber author reference resolves; releases-platform category matches 1.4.0; the only component used is Admonition, as in 1.4.0). I did not run a full astro build, since node_modules is not installed in this environment.

Two features lead the release: portfolios that follow a GitLab group and pick
up new projects on their own, and policies that can be narrowed to the
projects a rule actually applies to, by technology share or GitLab topic.

Follows the structure of the 1.4 note: hero, tagline, a section per feature
with a "What you get" list capped at three items, minor updates, and the
versions admonition (backend v2.43.2, frontend v2.37.1, chart v1.5.0).
