The conda Organization is delighted to announce that we are now fiscally sponsored by NumFOCUS. This will enable conda to apply for grants, accept and distribute funds, manage trademarks and own web domains with a distinct legal standing.

This milestone demonstrates how far the organization has come in creating an effective open source community with capable governance processes on par with other established projects. With this sponsorship comes the promise of further development - such as transitioning into full openness within GitHub – so stay tuned!

The latest conda release is now available. To update run:

conda install -n base conda=22.11.1

This release includes a number of improvements including:

• 🚅 Making the conda-libmamba-solver generally available. See the Getting Started Guide .
• 🏎 Parallel package downloads.
• 🧩 A new plugin framework. See the conda Plugin Docs and the Plugin Templates for examples.

Check out the 🎥 release video (!) and the changelog for the complete list of improvements.

Here's a summary of some things that have gone on around the web this week:

• Tell us how you use conda and win a prize too.
• PyPy and conda-forge
• conda-forge Releases Python 3.8.14, 3.9.14, and 3.10.7
• Mamba Release 1.0

We are pleased to announce the launch of the conda Community Forum, a gathering place for questions, answers, and discussion about the conda ecosystem.

We hope the forum will be a key component of that ecosystem, and will become the goto place for people with questions about conda & friends.

Special announcement​

If you have been following the conda project previously, you will notice a change in our version number for this release. We have officially switched to the CalVer versioning system as agreed upon in CEP 8 (Conda Enhancement Proposal).

Please read that CEP for more information, but here is a quick synopsis. We hope that this versioning system and our release schedule will help make our releases more predictable and transparent to the community going forward. We are now committed to making at least one release every two months, but keep in mind that we can (and most likely will) be making minor version releases within this window.

We are pleased to announce that new releases of conda and conda-build are now available in the conda defaults channel. The updates can be installed with

conda update conda conda-build

Here are some highlights from the releases:
