2023.11 To-do: Add release title

It seems like I forgot to come up with a release title for this release and left a placeholder in the title. If I only could have it on a to-do list somewhere… Before we dive into this pretty massive release, I want to quickly look back at two amazing things that happened in the past month.

First, we presented chapter 4 of the Year of the Voice, which introduced the new wake word feature in Home Assistant. This really brings the voice assistant experience to the next level, and we are super excited about it! Like have you seen the R5-based voice assistant droid?

Second, we had a security audit performed on Home Assistant by one of the top security auditors in the world! You can read all about it in the blog post. A big shout out to everyone subscribed to Home Assistant Cloudas you enable us to do these things!

Alright, about this release! It's huge! I love the tile card, and the ability to easily customize the information it shows now is just. But mostly, I'm super stoked about the new to-do lists, which will probably become a very central part of my household. Enjoy the release!
