December 2025 monthly wrap-up for the aiven/aiven-client repository. Delivered BYOC Cloud Deletion - Force Delete, enabling customers to remove a BYOC cloud even if some underlying instances fail to delete. Implemented via a new CLI argument and corresponding updates to client logic and tests, with a targeted commit to support this behavior. This feature strengthens end-to-end resource cleanup, improves operational resilience, and reduces manual remediation steps.
