O Iago 
Let's try here in Mastodon if LaTeX with Emacs users can help to solve any of these questions. (thanks in advance!)

MareiBit late, as one of the historic mirrors ran out of space and messed up our workflow:
#TeXLive2025 is now available as historic image via our #IslandOfTeX #docker image registry
registry.gitlab.com/islandoftex/images/texlive:TL2025-historic
So in case you are scared by the changes provided by TeXLive2026, feel free to use it (But please ensure to keep one pipeline running texlive:latest to help testing. Thanks!)
On second day of #Dante2026 @frischefarbe and me had a talk about electronic invoicing and #ZUGFeRD
He was giving an introduction about concepts and regulations. Some of the tools he developed can be found at https://erechnung.berlin/.
The #TeXLaTeX part of this topic was mine. Giving some examples of my own workflow and custom interfaces I developed for customers.
Additionally I got two feature requests during the conference, so there might be another update this week.
Weiter ging es mit „Habe ich was kaputt gemacht?“
Ulrike Fischer zeigte Methoden für Unit Tests bei #TeX und #TeXLaTeX. Durch das tagging-project sind da etwas speziellere Anforderungen dazu gekommen und sie präsentiert auch einen Test, der ähnlich zu dem ist, was ich mit DiffPDF mache, nur netter in der Pipeline. Muss ich dann auch einbauen.
#l3build ist da wirklich ein sinnvolles Werkzeug, wenn auch an einigen Stellen gewöhnungsbedürftig. Aber ich will es nicht missen.
