Fantastic work. Really looking forward to 10.9.
- Is there some list of the new planed features/changes?
  
  Not in any easily-readable format, no. You can look at PR’s and the like but that’s a bit of a pain. I imagine they’ll release something once they feature freeze in a week or so.
  
  On Mastodon, once of the maintainers (@hetisniels@mastodon.social) is posting some of the features for 10.9.
I hope I can move from nightly directly to the RCs, the freeze versions.

I had the bad idea of trying out 10.9 nightly, and I couldn't go back to 10.8, so I have to live with the bugs and incompatible plugins :(
- And that's why you always make a backup before trying out alpha or beta software
Awesome! .... What's a CI?
(I started reading the link but it doesn't introduce the term.)
- Probably "Code Integration"?
  
  Could also be "Continous Integration" (from CI/CD - Continous integration/Continous deployment/delivery)
  
  judging by the "Why build a new CI?" section their old "CI" was built on Azure DevOps so I would go with Continous Integration here.
- It's how programmers test code (on machines that aren't the ones they develop on).
- It is part of the automation pipeline. It is basically a system to take new code and process it.
Long live Jellyfin! 🙌
- That's one of the great things about free software
🎉
