October 2025 (2025-10) monthly summary for input-output-hk/mithril: Focused maintenance work to improve API clarity and maintain build stability. Delivered two scoped items: a deprecation messaging clarification for BlsVerificationKeyProofOfPossession (public API no longer includes verification; enhanced developer-facing warning) and a Mithril-stm version bump to 0.5.2 with updates to Cargo.toml and Cargo.lock. These changes reduce developer confusion, support smoother onboarding, and keep dependencies current, contributing to reliable builds and predictable releases.

Monthly summary for 2025-09 - input-output-hk/mithril. Focused on reliability and correctness of PoP verification. Main work item: bug fix to correct a typo in the PoP verification function name across tests and registration logic. Correct function name is verify_proof_of_possession; the typo verify_proof_of_possesion was fixed and propagated across relevant files. Commit: 89af2276c5136eb2a5a292f5f8e29bd587e64157. Impact: reduces risk of mis-calls in PoP verification, stabilizes test suite, and prevents mis-registration flows in production. This work enhances identity verification integrity and user trust. Technologies/skills demonstrated: bug hunting, cross-file refactoring, test maintenance, PoP/BLS verification knowledge, and code quality discipline. Business value: more reliable identity verification, fewer support issues related to PoP failures, and improved deployment stability.
