Hello community,

We welcome 2020 with our first Testing Update! Tell us how 2019 was for you ...

Some feature-updates:

We updated some kernels
The usual Cinnamon and Haskell updates
More work was done to slowly drop python2 22.
Needed adaption of our tools to support zstd extension/compression for packages
The usual upstream fixes
If you like following latest Plasma development you may also like to check out our current version of manjaro-kde-dev 8, which we build on a regular basis against kde-git master packages. Also check out our current 18.1.5 ISOs 5 and give us the needed feedback.

As always we appreciate your input and feedback for the updates.
