Welcome to the **July 2022** report from the [Reproducible Builds](https://reproducible-builds.org) project where we attempt to outline the most relevant things that have been going on in the past month. As a brief introduction, the reproducible builds effort is concerned with ensuring no flaws have been introduced during this compilation process by promising identical results are always generated from a given source, thus allowing multiple third-parties to come to a consensus on whether a build was compromised. As ever, if you are interested in contributing to the project, please visit our [*Contribute*]({{"/contribute/" | relative_url }}) page on our website.
