== TL;DR == * Controlled vocabulary and taxonomy for Toolhub * New toolinfo detail screen and editing layout * New toolinfo edit button behavior * Upgraded Elasticsearch python client libraries * Other features added * Bug fixes * Development fixes * Outreachy Round 25 project underway

As the 2022 calendar year nears its end, we are delivering a long overdue update on the work of the Toolhub project. Our last report was written over 5 months ago. In that time the taxonomy research project and its community feedback period completed their work. The developers on the team were assigned to other work for several months. We started work in earnest on Toolhub again around 2022-11-01.

The main focus of the the last 6 weeks or so of development work has been to implement the new attributes and their controlled vocabulary that were defined by Tricia and the community back in July and August. We are happy to say that work has now completed. Toolhub users can now select audiences, content types, tasks, and subject domains that each tool is most helpful for. These values can be used when searching and browsing Toolhub to discover new tools. We also fixed a number of annoying bugs and added a few more features that we hope will make it easier for folks to use the catalog.

With all the work described above done the team is planning on a quiet end to 2022 of time off with friends and family. We will be back in January 2023 to start the work of promoting these new features with the larger Wikimedia community. We also hope to announce additional focused work with a sub-community of Wikimedians to increase their usage of Toolhub. Look for more updates in 2023!
