- Packaged the new release of Google’s color emoji font which includes the Unicode 15 update. Requested and received a User Interface Freeze exception since this release happened several hours after our deadline. We’ll likely try to update this font for Ubuntu 22.04 LTS later.
- Updated the gucharmap package for Ubuntu 22.10 and Debian for the Unicode 15 release.
- Updated the harfbuzz packaging for Debian Experimental. This will probably land in Debian Unstable soon but won’t be in Ubuntu until 23.04.
- Participated in Debian discussion about switching GNOME to use PipeWire by default.
- nautilus-image-converter was ported to Nautilus 43 so I am reintroducing it to Debian and Ubuntu. Needs to get through the Debian NEW queue though.
- Packaged gtkmm4.0. It’s in the Debian NEW queue as are its build dependencies cairomm1.16 and pangomm2.48
- Updated the Debian transition request bugs to let the Release Team know we are ready for both the Nautilus 43 and GNOME Shell 43 transitions.
- Begun packaging GNOME 43.0 in preparation for its official release September 21
- Reached an internal limit for the number of forks of GNOME repos I could have for my account so the limit had to be increased!
