This week, I've mostly been focusing on preparing the remaining things for the release, which are: - GHA migration (to allow containers to be built and pushed there) - Basic auth, and making that work on each UI - Improving the Helm charts - Making every release artifact reproducible from a commit and build epoch, which is necessary for the container packaging, and will allow for automated releases in the future
I may be bugging a lot of you for reviews in the not too distant future :) - Ian On Fri, Oct 30, 2026 at 8:29 AM Ian Maxon <[email protected]> wrote: > > Hello fellow devs, > Happy Halloween eve.
