Infrastructure
- mkiso It can now generate ISO images that are fully compatible with Legacy BIOS.

MauiKit Development
- Move feature branches for MauiKit, Index, and VVvave into the development branch.

- VVave and Index are working on Windows with some features missing for the file manager like the editor component for previewing text files due to ksyntaxhighlighting missing DLLs.
Website
- We have updated Compendium and FAQ to indicate that our ISOs can be flashed using common tools such as Rufus, Etcher, ROSA Image Writer, KDE ISO Image Write or the command-line utility dd.
- We also updated content on the Compendium (English and Spanish) for clarification of our use of the term ‘deployment.’
