[Damian Johnson <atagar@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi all! Tis that time of year coal appears in all my sox so guess it's time
for a status report. This month I set arm aside to polish improvements that
accumulated in the Stem 1.3 release...

Gentoo Support

  % emerge stem

I've been delighted at how many Gentoo people have jumped out of the woodwork
to help. toralf worked with me on ticket #13904 to address testing issues, and
Manuel took on Stem 1.3 packaging the same day as its release - thanks guys!

Couple other quick things of note is that I updated our OpenHub repository
listing so it includes most of our newer projects...

  https://www.openhub.net/p/tor

... and trimmed membership of our internal lists.

Cheers! -Damian
