Trying to prepare FLS releases earlier:

  • since we completed the 1.94.0 release of the FLS a bit early this time, we checked into the stretch part of our goal this year to look at 1.95.0 early
  • we learned a bit more of the release notes process thanks to tips from Eric Huss and TC
  • Tshepang Mbambo and I attended the t-release meeting last week where we chatted about working a little "upstream" with them on generating the release notes a bit earlier
  • tomorrow in our t-fls meeting we'll discuss our interest with engaging over there; at a minimum I'll get engaged with t-release

Glossary and main-body text harmonization:

  • the first PR landed from Tshepang Mbambo removing IDs from the glossary
  • further steps planned, we have a tracking issue for it

Developer guide:

  • akin to how the Reference now has a developer's guide now for contributing we'll do the same in the FLS
  • Hristian Kirtchev has been working on this

Key developments: We have a Project Goal in 2026 that we'll take on: Stabilize FLS Release Cadence. Progress towards 1.93.1 looks good, most issues are closed. Blockers: None currently Help wanted: We'd love more folks from the safety-critical community to contribute to picking up issues or opening an issue if you notice something is missing.
