⚠️ Manually require some dependencies

In our efforts to slim down Avo's requirements to include only what we truly need, we removed some gems from our general requirements. So you'll need to require them yourself in your Gemfile.

We documented that thoroughly in the upgrade guide.

👻 Check out our open issues and participate in Hacktoberfest

We have a few issues where we'd need some help, and we marked them as participating in Hacktoberfest, so go check them out.
Open issues.

Update your license URL

In our last newsletter, we mentioned that we're not enforcing the one application/license rule yet, but we'll start doing that from November 25th (one month from now). So, please go to your licenses page and update the URL or IP to match the one you're using for each license.
We're in the process of updating that section of the app, so you'll see some changes in the coming week.

We're here if you need support with updating that information.

🎉 Surprise incoming

We're working on something nice, but we're not quite ready to unveil it. We think you'll ❤️ it.

📢 Avo v3.0

We're still waiting for your feedback for Avo v3, so let's hear it!
