## Source excerpt

Let me start by apologizing to everyone for skipping yet another monthly community update. This has largely been my fault as I was rather busy in January and following FOSDEM at the start of February I found myself occupied with things related to the EU store. I hope for things to go back to normal now; you can expect future community updates at the end of each month as per usual. Again, I apologise, mea culpa. I hope that this month's update and the news it brings will more than make up for the wait: the Nestflash section is absolutely packed this month, we're revealing PineTab2's pricing and SKU variants (both of which I'm sure you'll be pleased with), announcing that Star64 will be available in the next 6 weeks (or so) and report on all the work that has gone into PinePhone (Pros) development in the recent two months ... and much more Let's get to it. You can watch the synopsis of this month's community update on YouTube (embedded below) as well as on Odysee and PeerTube.
