-The commit history part of the post is shown below:+====== Blog and Environment Summary ====== 
 +This is the first edition of the Blog and Environment Summary. Here, changes to the train and maybe transport environment on Minetest are summarised and brought into bite-sized chunks.
  
-Speaking of changes, some testing can now be done on the ''new-ks'' branch, as there will not be any significant changes if it does not introduce new bugsHoweverI still need to add the "boring" part (documentationtestsUI changes, etc) before requesting proper review. The ''l10n'' and ''doc'' branches can be reviewed as well, as merging these would make further translation/documentation work easier, especially in feature branches.+  * Xenon release Mesetrains, a line of new rolling stock designed to compete with Moretrains's "Japanese train"These trains feature colour-coding for lineswhich is a novel feature to the high-speed train seriesno doubt taking heavy inspiration from the very old subway wagons. 
 +  * Advtrains has experienced a drastic rise in usage since the 2010sbecoming more and more of a mod servers generally haveThis is great!
