## Merkuro

Claudio has been busy fixing regressions and improving the stability of 
Merkuro. Notably, maps are now displayed again (if the event contains 
coordinates), the collection combobox in the editors are now initialized with 
a valid collection, filtering by name or tag works again, ...

Yes, for Twika I collect the list of changes from the list of merge requests 
closed in the last 7 days. So if you want your changes to be mentioned, make 
sure to either create a merge request with your changes or suggest your 
changes to the merge request for the blog post.

I can't realistically look at the git history of every repos to see if there 
is anything worth mentioning myself.

Cheers,
Carl
