 - Added a missing link to the Caddy installation environment in the installation documentation.
 - Downstream consumers can change the default [log/slog#Logger](https://pkg.go.dev/log/slog#Logger) instance that Anubis uses by setting `opts.Logger` to your slog instance of choice ([#864](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/864)).
 - The [Thoth client](https://anubis.techaro.lol/docs/admin/thoth) is now public in the repo instead of being an internal package.

 - The hard dependency on WebCrypto has been removed, allowing a proof of work challenge to work over plain (unencrypted) HTTP.
 - Firefox for Android support has been fixed by embedding the challenge ID into the pass-challenge route. This also fixes some inconsistent issues with other mobile browsers.
 - The Anubis version number is put in the footer of every page.
+- Prevent the proof of work nonce from being a decimal value by using Math.trunc to coerce it back to an integer if it happens ([#1043](https://github.com/TecharoHQ/anubis/issues/1043)).
 - The legacy JSON based policy file example has been removed and all documentation for how to write a policy file in JSON has been deleted. JSON based policy files will still work, but YAML is the superior option for Anubis configuration.
 - A standard library HTTP server log message about HTTP pipelining not working has been filtered out of Anubis' logs. There is no action that can be taken about it.
 - The default `favicon` pattern in `data/common/keep-internet-working.yaml` has been updated to permit requests for png/gif/jpg/svg files as well as ico.
