The SR kit is getting an upgrade! Next year's kit will be using Raspberry Pis instead of our current ODROID brain boards.

We're working on adding a Pi Hat as part of the new kit.

We've moved the website hosting to Mythic Beasts. This means that https://srobo.org/ works again, plus we have IPv6 and HTTP/2 support now.

We're in the process of adding spell checking to our repos, which should reduce the typos that make it to the outside world.

(posting here as this one is still open, though the publication deadline is passed so I'm not sure if this is still current?) The Infrastructure Team are in the process of creating a roadmap of work for the next 6 months or so.

Work is underway on planning kickstart, and the signups (will) have opened.
