Hello Again!!

Another relatively quiet week so we’ve not got a lot to say, but hope you are all enjoying the sun :).

Workflow changes

Just a heads up, but as part of our security tightening efforts, in a few weeks all community pull requests will need to have their workflow runs approved by a maintainer. This means either a Puppet employee or a Trusted Contributor will be need to give your changes a quick ok before the workflows can run and the tests can begin. If your pull requests are not being given the ok please ping us on them or reach out to us directly through the community slack or any of the other verified lines of communication.

Stdlib

You may have noticed some issues when upgrading to stdlib 9.0.0 due to the namespacing of functions, however we are pleased to announce that fixes for this have come in from alexjfisher which resolved these issue, leaving you free to upgrade your dependencies.
