Thanks for updating the title. With CalyxOS development going dormant, i dont need even more bad news.

Two important people left the project so work is paused until they figure out what to do. At least a few months to half a year. There seems to be an update to this post that i havent read yet tho.

Nothing major in the addendum. Basically the same as before, they will change signing keys which means everyone that wants to receive any future updates has to reinstall CalyxOS. They highly discourage continuing to use the OS in the meantime, but personally im not too worried tbh.
