## Staff We would like to welcome [Quentin Michaud][0] as part of the Arch Linux Package Maintainer team. ## RFC A previously proposed [Distribution Developer Manual RFC][1] has been accepted with the intention to document how to run the distribution while leveraging GitLab's collaboration features and streamlined workflows for maintaining and evolving the resulting specifications. We have proposed an [RFC to license all Arch Linux package sources][2] under the terms of the Zero-Clause BSD license. We have proposed an [RFC to streamline the writing and publishing of RFCs][3] by relying on markdown and dedicated spellcheckers and linters. ## archinstall We have released [archinstall up to v2.8.6][4], featuring Limine configuration changes, optimized mirror listing including improved handling of speed tests, and several bug fixes. These updates also add support for Catalan translation. ## Infrastructure We have deployed Tempo as an APM (Application Performance Monitoring) within our infrastructure and connected it as a data source in Grafana. The first integration has been implemented in AURWeb, allowing us to trace individual requests and database queries for better performance insights. Furthermore we enabled the [body Sieve extension in Dovecot][5] for our staff, allowing for more advanced email filtering as well as rolled out HTTP/3 for several of our services. ## Packaging ### Ruby We have successfully rebuilt all relevant packages for Ruby 3.2.4 including collaborative effort to make packages ready for the new interpreter version. Ruby 3.2.4 is now available in the official repositories. ### Statistics In this month, we’ve successfully rolled out 4797 package updates addressing various enhancements and rebuilds, including 2354 package upgrades. Additionally, we’ve received 163 new package issues, while resolving a total of 131 issues. [0]: https://lists.archlinux.org/archives/list/aur-general@lists.archlinux.org/th...
