## Summary - Added a link to the new Umbraco on DDEV blog post under "What's New on the Blog" in the August 2026 newsletter. - Added a "DDEV Training Starting Up Again This Fall" section announcing three sessions: managing huge databases with DDEV (Moshe Weitzman, Sept 23), Shopware with DDEV (Benny Poensgen, Oct 21), and advanced Coder.ddev.com techniques (Nov 11), each with a Google Calendar link and downloadable .ics file. - Verified the encoded UTC times against IANA timezone data so none of the sessions land in the ambiguous week between the US (Nov 1) and EU (Oct 25) daylight-saving transitions in 2026.

…from DrupalCamp Tokyo ## Summary - Merged the two kgaut.net database-dump bullets into one, since the second post is a direct follow-up to the first (same author, same site, related commands). - Removed the standalone "Umbraco CMS on DDEV" GitHub link from Community Tutorials, since the newsletter now links directly to the full Umbraco on DDEV blog post. - Noted the DrupalCamp Tokyo report is in Japanese and linked the two English-language `git worktree` posts for readers who want that coverage in English.
