I am very honored to be part of the first Sovereign Tech Fellowship program! This will directly support my work on #FreeDesktop, #AppStream and #PackageKit, so expect a lot more changes faster, and also way faster patch reviews. This is also the first time ever that I have dedicated time to work on fd.o, and I am excited about the possibilities! You can expect blog posts about it in future 😄 You can read more about the amazing program and the other fellows here:

I am excited to announce our publication of "Syntalos" in Nature Communications: A software to easily and reliably record from multi-modal data sources and design closed-loop interventions, with a focus on (neuro)scientific experiments, all while keeping timestamps synchronized! 🧵1/x

I'm glad Mint seems to have moved off the plans to revive aptdaemon - that code has been on life support for a loooong time and is basically unmaintainable today (Ubuntu knows this and ports away from it, but phasing it out completely takes a while). I'd definitely welcome contributions to #PackageKit and its APT backend from Mint, which is actually actively used by new projects 😉 (and for dead certain could use and would welcome new contributions!)
