October 2025 monthly summary for repo tempesta-tech/tempesta. Focused on improving contributor onboarding by updating the README with fresh contributor guidelines and a clear path to a separate contribution document. Replaced an outdated reference to a technical partner with a direct call to action for potential contributors. No major bugs fixed this month. This work reduces onboarding friction, clarifies contribution processes, and positions Tempesta for increased community involvement and faster initial contributions.

September 2025: Delivered a major overhaul of Tempesta's logging subsystem with measurable performance gains, reliability improvements, and groundwork for security logging. Key changes include a full logger rework with removal of the max_wait config, modularized ClickHouse integration, and improved polling/thread management, alongside robust error handling patterns. Fixed critical logging and HTTP header issues to improve data correctness and stability. Simplified test configuration by removing obsolete max_wait_ms in tfw_logger. Overall impact: faster, more reliable observability, reduced risk from configuration drift, and a stronger foundation for security-oriented logging. Demonstrated technologies/skills: C++ modern patterns, std::expected-based error handling, modular architecture, cross-repo collaboration, and performance-oriented logging design.
