==== Fedora Project ====

 * Updated `perl-MCE` to 1.863 in Rawhide:
  * On Cygwin, silently use `Mutex` in `MCE::Channel` when `Threads` is specified for better performance
  * New `defer` capability in `MCE::Signal`, which applies to `MCE::Shared` 1.863; see POD section labelled "DEFER SIGNAL" in `MCE::Signal`
  * Reverted `$child->exit` back to sending the `SIGQUIT` signal in `MCE::Child` now that `MCE::Shared::Server` 1.863 defers signal during IPC
  * Improved reliability for spawning `MCE` and `MCE::Child` inside threads including nested parallelization, made possible using a global lock `$MCE::_GMUTEX`
  * Updated signal handling in [[https://github.com/marioroy/mce-examples/tree/master/framebuffer|mce-examples/framebuffer on GitHub]]
 * Updated `perl-MCE-Shared` to 1.863 in Rawhide:
  * Use `MCE::Channel` for `MCE::Hobo->yield` not to incur unnecessary delays due to busy shared-manager process
  * Re-factored recent changes regarding IPC safety in `MCE::Shared::Server`; this update defers signal handling for `HUP`, `INT`, `PIPE`, `QUIT`, `TERM`, and custom handlers during IPC without incurring a performance penalty (see POD section labelled "DEFER SIGNAL" in `MCE::Signal` 1.863)
  * Reverted `$hobo->exit` back to sending the `SIGQUIT` signal in `MCE::Hobo` now that `MCE::Shared::Server` defers signal during IPC
  * Improved reliability for spawning `MCE::Hobo` inside threads including nested parallelization, made possible using a global lock `$MCE::_GMUTEX` in `MCE` 1.863
  * Updated signal handling in [[https://github.com/marioroy/mce-examples/tree/master/framebuffer|mce-examples/framebuffer on GitHub]]
  * Bumped `MCE` dependency to 1.863
 * Submitted a [[RedHatBugzilla:1776509|Review Request for a perl-Test2-Tools-Explain package]]
 * Submitted a [[RedHatBugzilla:1776513|Review Request for a perl-XString package]]

==== Local Packages ====

 * New package `perl-Test2-Tools-Explain` (0.02)
 * New package `perl-XString` (0.002)
 * Updated `perl-IO-Socket-SSL` (2.066) to default to `PROFILE=SYSTEM` cipher list ([[RedHatBugzilla:1775167|Bug #1775167]]) and not to package certificates used in test suite
 * Updated `perl-MCE` to 1.863 as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-MCE-Shared` to 1.863 as per the Fedora version
 * Updated `perl-Specio` to 0.45:
  * Made `XString` a prerequisite if installing with Perl 5.10+
