Hi Adam, I am new in open source contribution. I see that most of the tickets have PRs linked to them, some of them merged, so I presume there is nothing more to be done there. Are there any new tickets you find appropriate for newcomers? Also, in regards to code maintainability / readability, are we supposed to create our own PRs not linked to an existing issue? Best regards, Georgi
