Hey folks! It's spooky season, so you know what that means. It's time for [Hacktoberfest 2024](https://hacktoberfest.com/)! This is the annual event that "encourages people to contribute to open source throughout October", in exchange for rewards.

This year we have two main goals. First, as always, we want to support anyone looking to get involved in Open Source contributions, or helping Solus specifically. We would love to add people to our packaging team.

Second, there's been a big push recently to clean up and update our package repository, and we can use your help. Much of this work currently involves adding home pages to packages, making sure they build, fixing them if the don't, and adding monitoring information. Related, we would like to field test and improve our "autobuild" tool.
