Hello everyone,

Rather than post updates monthly, we decided to spread them out a bit. People were getting "update list fatigue", and ended up not even reading the updates as a result due to them being posted too frequently. We will try and find a happy medium between too frequent and infrequent for future updates.

That said, it has been a while since the last update, so here are (most) of the updates that have occurred since the last post:
