It's been a busy month with the FRB2023 online meeting and a large number of relevant papers, gathered here for your enjoyment. We also note the formal award of the 2023 Shaw Prize in Astronomy for the discovery of FRBs, to Bailes, Lorimer, and McLaughlin. Our congratulations again!

• The short GRB 231115A was detected by Fermi/GBM [GCN 35035], localized to the nearby M82 galaxy, and reported to be consistent with a magnetar giant flare [GCN 35044]. The source was 20 degrees past the meridian at CHIME, and no contemporaneous radio bursts were detected, to a fluence limit of <720 Jy-ms [ATel 16341].
