Heya folks! Our PAM (Pluggable Authentication Moduels) stack was updated this week! As such, we want to give everything a bit more testing to make sure that there aren't any big surprises when it goes out to everyone. This means that there will be no sync this Friday!

Did someone say "monorepo"? In order to bring us closer to @Serpent_OS's work, we are finally moving our package sources repositories into a single monorepo! The transition is expected to be quick, and documentation finalized very soon after. #Solus #linux #openSource - Evan
