February 2026: Modernization and performance uplift across the getsolus/packages suite. Delivered a major upgrade cycle focused on long-term maintainability, runtime efficiency, and better media handling. Key milestones include migrating all projects to .NET 10 (phasing out .NET 8), introducing a cross-architecture SIMD layer via SIMDe, aligning ABI with libdatachannel 0.24.1, and launching an extensible plugin system with Voice Activity Detection and media enhancements. Packaging was modularized with SIMDe managed as a separate dependency to improve reuse and maintainability. Overall, these changes reduce maintenance overhead, accelerate feature delivery, and improve runtime performance and media quality across platforms.
