    The PostgreSQL project has put out updated releases for all supported
    versions. "This release changes the behavior in how PostgreSQL
    interfaces with 'fsync()' and includes fixes for partitioning and over
    70 other bugs that were reported over the past three months.    "
    The fsync() issue was covered here
    in April 2018.

    [$] Some challenges for GNOME online accounts
    The cynical among us might be tempted to think that an announcement from
    the GNOME project about the removal of a feature — a relatively unused
    feature at that — would be an unremarkable
    event. In practice, though, Debarshi Ray's announcement that the GNOME Online
    Accounts     (GOA)
    subsystem would no longer support the "documents" access point touched off
    a lengthy discussion within the project itself. The resulting discussion
    revealed a few significant problems with GOA and, indeed, with the concept
    of online-account management in any sort of open-source umbrella project
    like GNOME.
