Evolution of the situation
September was more like a regular month again, though two contributors were not able to dedicate any time to LTS work.
For October we are welcoming Utkarsh Gupta as a new paid contributor. Welcome to the team, Utkarsh!
This month, we’re glad to announce that Cloudways is joining us as a new silver level sponsor ! With the reduced involvment of another long term sponsor, we are still at the same funding level (roughly 216 hours sponsored by month).
The security tracker currently lists 32 packages with a known CVE and the dla-needed.txt file has 37 packages needing an update.
