November 2025 performance summary: Implemented a security-conscious update workflow, expanded cross-team collaboration, and stabilized release publishing across nl-design-system repositories. Specifics include a 1-day cooldown for npm-check-updates to mitigate supply-chain risk (Lux), addition of two users to logius-committer and FinnWard to logius-maintainer (Terraform), and a fix to ensure release publishing is not blocked by an empty changeset (Candidate). Upgrades and compatibility considerations were maintained (npm-check-updates v19.0.0; Node >= 20). These changes collectively improve release reliability, security posture, and cross-team governance.
