Sometimes we fix easy bugs, sometimes hard ones and sometimes we fix bugs that are older than you and can have a driver's license: https://bugs.debian.org/186085, opened in 2003, closed in 2004, and actually fixed in 2025! #debian #trixie #22YearsOldBug

At DebConf25, during the New Contributors Onboarding Sprint by Tássia Camões Araújo, Tiago Bortoletto Vaz and Praveen Arimbrathodiyil no less than five people did the first upload of their work to Debian. Congratulations to Yunseong Kim (node-cryptiles), Michelle Jin (node-address), Giyeon Bang (node-parse-ms), Krista Fong (ruby-bunny) and Giacomo Paviano (ruby-cutest)! #debconf25 #dc25-onboarding #debian
