A Week of Symfony #832 (5-11 December 2022)

This week, Symfony 6.2.1 maintenance version was published. Meanwhile, we started working on the new features of the upcoming Symfony 6.3 version (to be released at the end of May 2023): we introduced build parameters, deprecated the ProxyManagerBridge package and added a ClockAwareTrait to help write time-sensitive classes. Lastly, we celebrated the SymfonyWorld Online 2022 Winter Edition conference.
