Salt, Vim, nodejs update in Tumbleweed (UPDATED)
This week’s openSUSE Tumbleweed snapshots had a steady amount of software packages in each of the daily releases.
While vim, Node.js and Salt updates made the headlines, AppStream, KDE Frameworks and the Linux Kernel provided several important updates.

openSUSE Tumbleweed - Review of the week 2023/03 - Dominique a.k.a. DimStar (Dim*)
For Tumbleweed, things are steadily rolling. Updates come in (mostly pre-tested in devel projects), are staged, pass staging (most requests pass in a day), and are then added to a snapshot. Sounds rather unspectacular. Of course, this is the optimal case, which does not work in some cases (as seen on the ‘future changes’ that have been carried over for a few weeks already). But all that does not have an impact on users’ workstations, as we simply do not deliver those aspects which are known not to be ready.
