✔️ In the past months we reworked the #VoxPupuli module pipelines to be more secure and to be hardened against supply chain attacks.
https://github.com/voxpupuli/community-triage/issues/50#issuecomment-4142338471

✔️ We enhanced the Vox Pupuli module pipelines to test specific openvox-agent package versions. This enables us to test openvox-agent changes/releases, on over 150 real modules, with acceptance tests, before we publish it to our users.

First day of #cfgmgmtcamp2026 is over. I've mixed feelings about it. The #AIhype reached the #DevOps space.
