A CFP for Code4lib pre-conference sessions (to be held May 23, 2022 in Buffalo, NY) was sent to the VuFind mailing list recently, with a deadline of November 18. Demian has submitted proposals in the past without success, but it might be worth trying again if anyone planning to attend.

No major news; still waiting for progress from Villanova's legal team.
