+    <h3>Agents Evaluating Serena for Themselves & Maintenance Update</h3>
+    <p class="date">April 14, 2026</p>
+    <p>
+        <b>Evaluation.</b>
+        We had our actual "end users", i.e. coding agents, evaluate the added value of Serena's tools based on their own empirical insights.
+        Read what the agents had to say in our <a target="_blank" href="https://oraios.github.io/serena/04-evaluation/000_evaluation-intro.html">evaluation report</a>.<br>
+        This represents the first systematic evaluation we ever conducted.
+    </p>
+    <p>
+        <b>Maintenance Update.</b> The new v1.1.2 release adds several improvements and fixes.<br>
+        If you have already switched to the uv tool installation of Serena, upgrade as follows:<br>
+        uv tool upgrade serena-agent --prerelease=allow
+    </p>
