To get announcements of most new GNU releases, subscribe to the info-gnu
mailing list: <https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-gnu>. Nearly
all GNU software is available from <https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/>, or
preferably one of its mirrors (<https://www.gnu.org/prep/ftp.html>). You
can use the url <http://ftpmirror.gnu.org/> to be automatically
redirected to a (hopefully) nearby and up-to-date mirror.

This month we welcome Joseph Myers as a new co-maintainer of GCC,
and Mike Gerwitz as the author and maintainer of his new GNU
package easejs, and German Arias as the author and maintainer of
his new GNU package fisicalab. Thanks to all.

A number of GNU packages, as well as the GNU operating system as
a whole, are looking for maintainers and other assistance. Please
see <https://www.gnu.org/server/takeaction.html#unmaint> if you'd
like to help. The general page on how to help GNU is at
<https://www.gnu.org/help/help.html>. To submit new packages to
the GNU operating system, see
<https://www.gnu.org/help/evaluation.html>.

As always, please feel free to write to me, <address@hidden>, with
any GNUish questions or suggestions for future installments.
