The situation with the Software Heritage Archive might be improving, and they stopped deadnaming me in particular.
I don't want to give them credit for this until they document a process that _other_ trans software authors can use, but here are the updates:
They seem to have changed development priorities so that handling takedowns and name changes has more than the 0 priority they gave it before.
But they're doing it their way, which means they have to code themselves out of the corner they coded themselves into. I'm glad to see the development but disappointed that they're just _starting_ after two years.
No updates that I know of on the "feeding everyone's code, regardless of license, into a HuggingFace AI" front.
