So, what's next for Manjaro?

It's getting a bit confusing to keep track of what's going on with the distro, so i would appreciate some info from people who know more than me.

- The last stable update had this note in the forum post:

>This also sets Manjaro Linux into a frozen state for a while until we have finished migrating our Gitlab Instance over to a new Forgejo Instance.

Anyone knows how this is going? There have been no new package updates on the Stable and Testing branches for almost a month now. I assume this is connected to the migration. Is there any ETA on that? I haven't been able to find any more info.

- Phil M. has been posting this on all the recent update posts:

>Note: I’ve super limited time to do Manjaro these days. So expect delayed response from me or none at all …

Is that a reason for concern? I mean, is it even safe to use Manjaro right now? A declaration like this coming from (who I suppose is) the lead developer doesn't exactly inspire confidence.

- A couple of days ago, there was some new development on the Manjaro 2.0 Manifesto thread. It looks promising, but I'm still not sure what exactly it means for the distro and if/how it's connected with the previous two points.

Bringing workers to industries?

I'm looking for ways to modify the game to let me transport passengers to industries as workers (I really like this kind of gameplay in games like W&R: Soviet Republic). I found a NewGRF called Manpower ogfx-industries (link) that does more or less what I'm looking for - "extraction industries" like mines and oil wells require passengers to work optimally. However, it also includes this:

>Extractive industry have limited resources and before its life end, production level will drop to the lowest one.

And that's a change I'm not such a huge fan of. The NewGRF has some options, but I haven't found a way to turn the depletion feature off.

Does anyone know about other mods that add this kind of gameplay? Thanks
