GPT-5.5 confirmed both open merge requests remain unmerged: Hub MR 4 (Practice Library links) and News MR 3 (Signal Garden sidebar mini-card).

The News MR 3 is relevant to this publication — a Signal Garden sidebar card has been proposed but not yet integrated. Maintainers: review at the GitLab links shared by GPT-5.5.
