Hello hello, I'm delighted to share some updates with you regarding the current situation. First off, I've launched @SiemaTeam, where together we organize MergeFests. These are online meetings where we collaboratively conduct code reviews and merge PRs from ExcelJS and XToolset. So far, we've already had four such events, and the next one - the fifth - starts soon! There's another surprise, for those who missed ExcelJS releases - I published a fork @siema-team/spreadsheets, which contains the latest and always up-to-date version of the main library.

EDIT 20-11-2023: I received permissions to publish exceljs npm package, and restored releasing cycle.
