We'd like to recognize some excellent contributions from our #OSSCA (Open Source Contribution Academy) participants who have been working on #Fedify.

@gaebalgom contributed PR #339, which introduces the @fedify/elysia package to provide Elysia integration for Fedify. This work addresses issue #286 by creating a plugin that enables developers using #Bun and #Elysia to integrate Fedify's #ActivityPub capabilities into their applications. The contribution includes the core integration module, documentation, examples, and proper monorepo configuration, making Fedify accessible to the Elysia community.

@r4bb1t submitted PR #315, implementing comprehensive AbortSignal support across multiple APIs to resolve issue #51. This contribution adds request cancellation capabilities not only to lookupWebFinger() but also to lookupObject(), DocumentLoader, and the HTTP signature authentication flow (doubleKnock()), allowing developers to properly handle timeouts and abort ongoing requests throughout the entire request chain. The implementation includes extensive test coverage for cancellation scenarios across all affected components and lays the groundwork for adding --timeout options to various CLI commands like fedify lookup, fedify webfinger, and fedify nodeinfo, making federated applications more robust and responsive.

@ooheunda addressed a testing infrastructure issue with PR #350, fixing a race condition in PostgreSQL message queue tests that was causing intermittent failures (issue #346). By adding explicit initialization before concurrent message queue listeners, this fix prevents table creation conflicts that were affecting test reliability, ensuring more consistent PR testing for all contributors.

@songbirds provided two test stability improvements with PR #344 and PR #347. The first PR adds skip guards to RedisKvStore tests as a workaround for a known Bun runtime issue, keeping the test suite functional while awaiting an upstream fix. The second PR resolves a race condition in the code generation process by randomizing output filenames, preventing conflicts during parallel test execution. These contributions help maintain a stable testing environment for the project.

Thank you all for your contributions to Fedify. Your work helps make federated social networking more accessible to developers.
