May 2025 — MeteoSwiss/opendata: Delivered two documentation-focused features to strengthen CSCS policy references and data-access guidance, complemented by targeted bug fixes for policy navigation. The CSCS Documentation and Status Updates feature consolidated terms of use changes, removals, and status page link fixes to ensure accurate policy references and accessible CSCS status information. The Data Access and NWP Documentation Improvements feature expanded guidance on GRIB2 data handling and reading/visualizing NWP model data. A rollback/fix ensured policy accuracy and navigation reliability: reverted an unintended CSCS terms-of-use change and corrected the CSCS link jump behavior. These changes improve user onboarding, reduce support queries, and accelerate data integration for downstream workflows. Commit history highlights includes updates and fixes across three CSCS commits (43a1b092...; e4eb36eb...; 78e7b852...) and two data-doc commits (c21af0d0...; 0f5d4448...).
