### vac:p2p: §

- `vac:p2p:ift:2025q3-nimlibp2p-mix:mix-core`
  - waku-org/nwaku#3561 chore: bump mix
    - Update proof of concept code to use latest Mix refactors and features
  - waku-org/mix#85 fix: ensure destination and exit nodes are not selected as part of SURBs path
    - Bug reported by @prem_chaitanya
  - waku-org/mix#84 refactor: each surb has a different I
    - Requested by @akshaya.mani
  - Archive `main` branch as `main-archive`, and rename `main-s2` to `main`
  - Currently working on moving mix code to nim-libp2p
- `vac:p2p:ift:2025q3-nimlibp2p-maintenance:maintenance`
  - vacp2p#nim-libp2p#1673 feat: v1.13.0
    - Prepared release and asked DST team for regression testing
  - vacp2p#nim-libp2p#1681 feat: add skipIDontWant and skipPreamble
    - Required for mix so the sender node does not warn in advance of large messages being sent (since these control messages are not sent via mix)
  - Currently working on exposing Reset to streams/connections
  - QUIC improvements
