| Two of our contributors, [Wanling](https://github.com/wanling0000) and [Yubo](https://github.com/Yubo-Cao) have already finished their projects ([Git support](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/wiki/GSoC-2025-%E2%80%90-Git-Support-for-JabRef) and [Walkthrough/Welcome Tab](https://github.com/JabRef/jabref/wiki/GSoC-2025-%E2%80%90-Walkthrough-and-Welcome-Tab)) and we are very proud to present their work in this release. [Philip](https://github.com/palukku) is already on the finish line and you can already test his [Cite-As-You-Write](https://blog.jabref.org/2025/07/25/cayw-endpoint/) feature. |

As teaser? I would not hang it too high yet -- think, it will get much attraction when we really mention it 😅

maybe as a teaser - just a mention of LSP feature preview (as at the end it is an alpha), and a mention that a separate article on it will be published in coming weeks

"donors"? Or donators? Or on English is right to use "donors"?

Okay, in my mother tongues we typically associate donors with either blood donors or organ donors 😅

Same here, patrons/sponsors are better words for this - but sponsors are generally organizations or funding bodies, and patrons are individuals
