*1. Release Roadmap*

   - 1.18 release update - oops bug has been fixed by Chris (\o/); 1.18.5
   in testing
   - 1.19 - in about 2 weeks; upstream already branched and is preparing a
   stable release as well

*2. Features & Bugs*

   - Question from Olivier : Find in page feature - WIP; Olivier offering
   to finish the branch
   - Scrollbar fixes and rendering branches from Santosh; Note to also try
   to identify further causes for M10 scrolling performance issues (driver,
   mir, etc.) while doing the scrollbar rendering work.

*3. Misc*

   - Sandboxing discussion postponed to next week
   - Chrome webview apk move : discusses Google not shipping a separate
   Webview APK, defaulting on using the one in Chrome itself to remove code
   duplication
   - Platform snap contains oxide now; needs the new 1.18.5 with the fix to
   rebuild the snap; and then webbrowser-app can use the shared library
   - Olivier to write a blog post explaining how to use the new
   ubuntu-app-platform snap to simplify creating apps using Qt & Oxide.
