Apr 1, 2025April 2025 focused on delivering a stable, value-driven release for oqc-community/qat while improving CI/CD reliability and repository hygiene. Key release work included packaging and versioning for 2.7.0 with updated wheels and multi-arch support for aarch64 and s390x across supported Python versions. CI/CD pipelines were optimized with warning filter corrections and docplex-related noise reduced, speeding builds and improving signal quality. Reliability improvements ensured test reports upload regardless of test outcomes and repository hygiene was tightened by updating gitignore to ignore Python version files and the reports directory.
