@mathieucarbou your work actually made it into the report wearing two separate hats: in addition to the libraries from the repositories owned by your own account, the excellent libraries from the ESP32 Asynchronous Networking organization of which you are a member also made the report!

Yes indeed!
Thanks a lof for the kind words and recognition!

I'm afraid I've made my way to this report thanks to my OCD-driven strive for perfection that makes me produce new releases even after moderate updates because I always hope that they're gonna be stable ones :sweat_smile: But I'm proud anyway. Also I've managed to abstain from new releases for quite a while.

I'm always in support of promptly shipping work to the users.

In open source software projects it is common to see there be a long delay between the time that important advancements or fixes are made in the codebase and when they reach the users, due to the project maintainers not getting around to making a release. In addition to simply not finding the time to complete the chore, another cause of this is often that maintainers postpone making a release because they feel compelled to fit some additional feature from their backlog into the release. This can cause significant postponements of a release when that work ends up taking longer than expected.
