Microsoft announced the first preview release of Package Source Mapping with Visual Studio 2022 preview 4.
Package Source Mapping gives users fine-grained control of where their packages come from by mapping every package in their solution to target a package source.
Package Source Mappings will apply to all project types – including .NET Framework – as long as compatible tooling is used for build and restore.

Ruby on Rails 7.0 alpha 1
Rails 7.0 alpha 1 offers new JavaScript answers, at-work encryption, query logging, and Zeitwerk exclusivity.
The new version has a dramatically improved integration between Rails and JavaScript + CSS. Also, when users have a controller action that needs to load two unrelated queries, they can now do it concurrently through ‘Relation#load_async.’
Extracted from HEY, the new version has added encrypted attributes to Active Record, so applications can offer at-work encryption in addition to the traditional at-rest and in-transit coverage.
