A quiet Django day: the admin's filter_vertical m2m widget gets its missing bulk-select controls back [ref:4], while documentation catches up with the move of error reporting to MAILERS [ref:8].
Fixed #36629 -- Added missing "Choose all" and "Remove all" buttons in admin m2m filter_vertical widget. django/django
Ticket 36629: the vertical layout of the admin many-to-many filter never rendered the bulk-select buttons, so a change that added them only covered the horizontal widget. This lands them in filter_vertical, credited in part to earlier work by @nileshpahari.
Fixed #37261 -- Documented error reporting migration to MAILERS. django/django
Documents how to migrate AdminEmailHandler and BrokenLinkEmailsMiddleware to MAILERS specifically when you rely on fail_silently with an unreliable email backend connection, the case where a naive migration silently drops error reports. No code changes; audit your settings if you have not moved off the old handlers.

The commit for the same ticket, adding the missing "Choose all" and "Remove all" buttons in the admin m2m filter_vertical widget. Admins with long many-to-many lists no longer need to move selections one at a time.
Fixed false positive for func_supports_parameter() with args or kwargs. django/django
The internal helper func_supports_parameter() used to report True for "args" and "kwargs" on functions with variable *args/**kwargs; it now returns False and its docstring states it only checks named arguments.
Added onboarding process for Ops team. django/dsf-working-groups
In the long tail: the DSF working groups repo gained an onboarding section for the Ops team, borrowed largely from Sarah Boyce's write-up. It remains a draft, with the language still being refined.
