Week ending 2026-10-04 (Week 40)
A week of clearing paths 
! I focused on bringing down the untriaged ticket queue, moving the Sphinx cleanup forward by reviewing the compatibility changes and fixing related documentation issues, and helping unblock security and release-blocking work through report triage, vulnerability review, and preparations for the October 6th security release 
. Plenty of digging 
, reviewing 
, and small-but-important things moving forward 
.
