This was a bit smaller development cycle with around 1000 changes all over the tree and 103 unique contributors. I'm once again very happy to see so many "new" people next to the "oldtimers".

- Toolchain:
- binutils 2.39 added, binutils 2.38 is now the default
- gdb 12 added, gdb 11 is now the default
- support for 5.18, 5.19 and 6.0 kernel headers
- glibc updated to 2.36

- Filesystem:
- Ability to use dracut to create an initramfs that contains a subset of the root filesystem contents.

- New packages: agent-proxy, catatonit, cni-plugins, crun, docopt-cpp, dracut, forge, kmemd, libmanette, mdio-tools, open-isns, python-editables, python-hatch-fancy-pypi-readme, python-hatch-vcs, python-hatchling, python-libevdev, python-minimalmodbus, python-pathspec, qt6-serialport, rtl8192eu, signal-estimator, slirp4netns, tinycompress

- Removed packages: libdcadec, rabbitmq-server

- Removed defconfigs: Amarule a64 relic, ARM Juno, Bananapi M1 / M1 plus / M2 plus / M64, FriendlyARM NanoPC T4 / A64 / M1 / M1 plus / M4 / Neo2 / Neo4 / Neo plus2 / R1 / Orangepi PC2 / Plus / Prime / rk3399 / Win, Rock PC rk3399 / PI4 / N10.

FOSDEM is again back as an on-site event in 2023, so we will have our usual developers days Mon - Wednesday after FOSDEM (6-8/2). For more details, see the announcement:
