+Aspects Updates
+###############
+
+For the upcoming Teak and Ulmo releases, we plan to invest in a few areas to
+support content modularity, flexible learner credentialing, and non-degree
+credential pathways. We'll expand Individual Learner Dashboards to show learner
+progress through content tagged with a particular competency. We'll surface data
+in-platform to show how library content is performing across an instance. We'll
+give users the ability to define groups of learners, so that they can view what
+and how these learners are doing.
+
+The Open edX Teak release comes out in June 2025.

+theming system makes it much easier to theme your full site, including the Open
+edX mobile applications.

+Stay Up To Date with Teak
+#########################
+
+Beginning with the Redwood release, the community has come together to pre-plan
+major product deliverables well in advance of the release's code cut off date.
+This planning process is an open, synchronous meeting which anyone may join,
+whether to discuss projects they're contributing or to follow along to get a
+front row seat to the next release's deliverables. Coordination across community
+projects in this way allows us to have more predictable feature sets available
+in each release, facilitates assistance across the community for projects that
+may be falling behind, and prevent duplicative work - which streamlines efforts
+and reduces redundancy.
+
+The Named Release Planning meeting occurs biweekly on Thursdays starting January
+9th 2025, and can be found on the `Open edX Meeting Calendar
+<https://calendar.google.com/calendar/u/0?cid=Y192ODZzaHJuZWdzaHNxZ3A0Zmoyazk0dTdiY0Bncm91cC5jYWxlbmRhci5nb29nbGUuY29t>`_.
+Join asynchronously in the `#release-planning room in Slack <openedx.org/slack>`_.
