LLVM, VLC updates in Tumbleweed
During Hack Week this weeek, openSUSE’s rolling release Tumbleweed still manages to send out four snapshots.
Software packages like LLVM, the Linux Kernel’s firmware, VLC and fwupd were just a few that landed on peoples’ systems after a zypper dup.

openSUSE Tumbleweed – Review of the week 2023/45
Dear Tumbleweed users and hackers,
This week was all in the name of Hackweek, which means some people diverged their efforts a bit away from Factory/Tumbleweed and others have finally found the time they craved and could submit what they had on their wish-list. The Release Team was trying to keep up with the submissions while also having their own time dedicated to hackweek. Seeing that we published 6 snapshots (1102, 1103, 1105, 1106, 1107, and 1108) I dare say this worked out pretty well.

Hackweek 23
Hack Week is the time SUSE employees experiment, innovate & learn interruption-free for a whole week! Across teams or alone, but always without limits.
The Hack Week 23 was from November 6th to November 10th, and my project was to gvie some love to the GNOME Project.
Before the start of the Hack week I asked in the GNOME devs Matrix channel, what project needs some help and they gave me some ideas. At the end I decided to work on the GNOME Calendar, more specifically, improving the test suite and fixing issues related to timezones, DST, etc.
