March 2026 monthly summary for pyccel/pyccel: Delivered a robust fix to the Pyccel Make command for C language support and preprocessing workflow, with a regression test added. Improved build integration by declaring a public dependency on stdlib/math/ for the STC library in both CMake and Meson. Refined Fortran-C preprocessing by renaming pyc_math_f90.f90 to pyc_math_f90.F90 and addressing integer conversion warnings. These changes reduce build failures, stabilize C-target workflows, and strengthen cross-language tooling. Collaboration with Emily Bourne contributed to co-authored changes and broader test coverage.

January 2026 (pyccel/psydac) monthly summary focusing on delivering business value, stabilizing the release train, and strengthening testing and docs. Key outcomes include Version 1.0.0 release with a new psydac CLI (compile, mesh, test), enhanced installation experience, updated README/docs, and CI workflow improvements. Also completed critical hygiene and testing fixes that reduce maintenance burden and risk in production.

December 2025: Delivered core releases, strengthened packaging and versioning workflows, and hardened numerical methods in PSYDAC. Focused on enabling reproducible releases, automated PyPI deployment, and reliability improvements for multi-patch domains and 3D assembly, driving business value through faster release cycles, clear attribution, and production-ready tooling.

Monthly summary for 2025-11: Delivered key stability and compatibility improvements for pyccel/pyccel. Fixed release version reporting and initiated groundwork for broader Python version support, alongside CI/config enhancements to improve cross-platform testing and coverage. These changes reduce release risk and prepare the project for the next cycle of feature work.

October 2025 monthly summary for pyccel/psydac. Focused on enhancing distributed geometry handling and stabilizing distributed TensorFemSpace workflows. Delivered: mpi_dims_mask parameter in Geometry to enable flexible domain decomposition with unit test validation; fixes to distributed TensorFemSpace including API alignment for the 2D Poisson example and improved plotting in MPI contexts, supported by new tests and updated examples. Impact: improved scalability and reliability of distributed PDE solving, reduced debugging effort, and clearer API consistency for users and contributors. Technologies demonstrated: MPI-based parallelism, Python APIs, unit testing, and plotting utilities.
