September 2025 - LTS-Haskell project: focused on build compatibility and test stability for LTS 24.10 across commercialhaskell/lts-haskell. Delivered targeted dependency constraint updates to cap upper bounds for key dependencies to prevent conflicts with newer versions and align with LTS 24.10 requirements. Expanded the test failures list to acknowledge known GitHub REST issues to stabilize CI runs. These changes reduce build fragility due to external upgrades, improve CI determinism, and support a more reliable release cadence for downstream users.
