> Our Android release follows our alpha branch to the ESR 102 release train. Please see the 12.0a2 blog post for details.
> The mission of Software Heritage is to collect, preserve and share all the publicly available source code (see https://www.softwareheritage.org for more information).
> Thanks to Stefan Sperling (@stsp), Software Heritage now has a CVS loader [1] [2]. It's been deployed in our staging infrastructure [3]. We have ingested CVS origins that were listed from sourceforge [3].
> We are very excited to announce the launch of SWHAP Days, a two-day workshop to reflect on the current state and the future of software preservation, exploring challenges and opportunities related to the collection, archival and display of our landmark legacy software.
> Organized with the support of [UNESCO], [INRIA] and [LIP6], this workshop will also be the chance to learn more about the Software Heritage Acquisition Process (SWHAP) and the Software Stories presentation platform, developed with support from [UNESCO] in collaboration with the University of Pisa and the sciencestories.io team.
> Last week, I read "The Gamma Database Project" for a Red Book reading group. Unlike the last paper for this group, this one was a lot more approachable in length: 19 pages.
> I'm putting up some of my notes here from reading the paper. If you read through to the end, there's dessert: a quibble I have with the paper.
