Luxcore appoints Remco G. as testing Lead; Launches documentation hub

Remco G. - also known as Geraroz on Discord - will officially take up the role he has been unofficially performing for Lux for several months as Lead of the testing team. This move, alongside the earlier appointment of Tetyana Spronyuk as Product Quality Officer, will further help to improve our product testing and quality control processes.
