jeffro256 posts July 2025 Monero/Carrot dev update

jeffro2561 has posted the first progress report (M1/July 2025)2 for their latest Monero/Carrot3 dev work CCS proposal4:

Since the last milestone update, I have spent a lot of time reviewing https://github.com/seraphis-migration/monero/pull/81, which is listed as a blocker for the alpha stressnet. I did a lot of refactoring to fcmp++-stage as well to prepare for the introduction of the spend device interface, which will further enable support of hardware wallets for FCMP++. [..] Monero v0.18.4.2 was released this last month with a privacy leak fix and a report on the patched vulnerability.5
