# Weekly Updates
## 2024-05-17
Hello there! After the 1.7.1 release last week, the core team has been focusing on a few remaining issues for 1.7.2 and starting to look forward to 1.8!
- Current Status
- [Init-time constant evaluation](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/issues/1042)
- Initial [discussion and planning](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/pull/1649) are happening as an extension of the RFC proces
- [Registry UI](https://github.com/opentofu/registry/issues/450)
- Designs and prototyping are in progress!
- [Releases page with direct links to artifacts](https://github.com/opentofu/get.opentofu.org/pull/25) is now live https://get.opentofu.org/tofu/api.json
- A lot of smaller tickets are being worked on, you can take a look at the [1.7.2 and 1.8.0 milestones](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/milestones) for details.
- [Better error messages in for_each blocks](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/pull/1485/) was approved and merged!
- [Improved integration of JSON strings in generated configs](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/pull/1595) also made it in!
- Issue and RFC Workflow:
- As this project matures, the core team has started looking more closely at the current issue and RFC process.
- The core team will likely be proposing changes to this process based on contributor feedback and rough edges we've encountered.
- Once the proposal is ready, we'd love any past, current, or prospective contributors to weigh in and share their feedback!
- How can I help?
- Use OpenTofu, report issues, and please upvote the ones that are important to you! You can see an overall ranking in the [ranking issue](https://github.com/opentofu/opentofu/issues/1496).
- We occasionally mark issues with the `help-wanted` label, so keep an eye out for them!
