Reviewing from phone, so far just part of the review.

| As is tradition for these meetings, a large part of the week went into maintenance that simply doesn't happen at the same pace when the team is scattered across time zones: reviewing, testing, and merging or closing pull requests and issues, following up on stale discussions, and cleaning up long-standing rough edges across the GRASS repositories. On top of that, the group welcomed **5 new contributors**, tracked down and fixed several bugs, merged new addons, and pushed forward a number of core and infrastructure improvements, including a technology bump for the website. |

5 new contributors could be confused with developers, maybe say something like 5 of the participants contributed for the first time. Then below the 5 new contributors are more explained, so that's probably fine.
| Highlights from the week include: | ||
|
|
||
| * **Heavy maintenance push** — pull requests and issues were reviewed, tested, and merged or closed across the grass, grass-addons, grass-website, and grass-tutorials repositories, including a batch of CodeQL-flagged fixes and a broader migration of module tests to pytest | ||
| * **5 new contributors** joined and got up to speed quickly — including a very promising almost-15-year-old newcomer! Two of them are close to landing a full hyperspectral data processing chain in the *i.hyper* addon (EnMAP and EMIT data import, atmospheric correction, spectral resampling), while the others added test coverage to addons and helped get GRASS addons building on Windows in CI |

| * **Bugs found and fixed**, including two `v.proj` reprojection issues, an orphaned wxGUI drag-image bug on macOS, and a temporal framework metadata bug caught while reviewing this year's GSoC temporal framework project |

I am aware of just one v.proj bug. But it may be better to be more vague here anyway.

Numbers to be updated on sunday. Some highlights might also change.
I built as before, with hugo, because for some reason the new workflow with docker did not work for me this time. It might end up looking a bit different.
Marking it as draft, though revision and comments are welcomed.
