# Tech report - Sept 2026

Hello, we’re back with yet another cycle of updates.

Here’s the September 2026 platform update. This one is almost entirely IndiaFOSS 2026.

**Blog post:** [Tech report - Sept 2026](https://fossunited.org/blog/tech-report/sept-26)  
**Changelog:** [Changelog - FOSS United Knowledge Base](https://docs.fossunited.org/changelog/#september-2026)

IndiaFOSS 2026:

- **Live stream** : self-hosted on MediaMTX, run by Jasil and the streaming team. Also showed a live hall-wise schedule during the event. [Stats thread](https://forum.fossunited.org/t/if26-livestreaming-recording/8494/10).
- **Devrooms, awards, stats** all had their final edits. New [log page](https://fossunited.org/indiafoss/2026/log) aggregating community blog posts about the event.
- **Parallel events page** ([indiafoss/2026/parallel](https://fossunited.org/indiafoss/2026/parallel)): dynamic map via Protomaps + Leaflet + Carto.
- **Day-one outage** : Frappe Cloud compute ran out despite two mid-day bumps, traced to uncached check-in traffic from registration desks.
- Last year’s QR check-in scanner ([#1147](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1147)) ran completely untouched this year, performance and UI work on it is a 2027 ToDo work.

Platform highlights:

- **Ticket transfer overhaul** ([#1786](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1786), [#1787](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1787)): guest approval tokens, friendlier errors. [RFC #1794](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/issues/1794) proposes signed tickets next.

- **Free ticket coupons** ([#1779](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1779)): per-event breakdown including t-shirt inclusion per tier.

- **Security** : continued endpoint hardening with Bruno API test coverage.

- **Schedule page** : BOF/Invited Talk types, Markdown descriptions, mobile speaker photo fixes.

- **Orderless search** ([#1748](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1748)): proposal/speaker search matches regardless of word order.

- **Accessibility** ([#1733](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1733)): accessible ticket registration progress bar, closing a volunteer-reported issue. First contribution from Prakhar Pandey.

- **Dev setup** ([#1767](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1767), [#1768](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1768), [#1797](https://github.com/fossunited/fossunited/pull/1797)): fully self-bootstrapping, realistic demo profiles. First contribution from S Mayur.
