This report covers the development in the [linuxkit/linuxkit] [linuxkit/lcow] [linuxkit/kubernetes] [linuxkit/virtsock] [linuxkit/rtf] [linuxkit/homebrew-linuxkit] [moby/tool] repositories. There were 372 contributions (PRs/Issues/Comments) from 23 individual contributors. 42 new PRs were opened and 40 PRs were merged. 26 new issues were opened and 22 issues were closed. We made two releases in July. The primarily updated the Alpine Linux based packages to Alpine 3.8 and added much improved logging support and a new provider for Scaleway. The mostly had improvements to the `linuxkit` tool. We merged the `moby/tool` back into `linuxkit/linuxkit` and added support for private repositories/registries and improved `linuxkit pkg build`. Along with the usual kernel updates, `containerd` was updated to v1.1.2 and WireGuard to 0.0.20180718.
