Oct 1, 2025October 2025: Documentation accuracy improvements for EdgeDB setup in geldata/gel. No new features shipped this month; focus was on a critical data-quality fix to ensure correct EdgeDB configuration guidance. Updated the gel.toml server-version reference from 6.1 to 6.11 across two docs to reflect the supported EdgeDB version and prevent misconfigurations. The change was committed as 2f3bd5955ebba3de8819f3169238d31a8812f434 with message "Fix typo with `gel.toml` server-version (#9103)". Impact: improves onboarding reliability, reduces support tickets related to setup, and aligns documentation with current EdgeDB version. Technologies and skills demonstrated: git/version control, markdown/doc templating, attention to configuration accuracy, cross-repo documentation maintenance.
