News
Notes from the shack.

What gets posted here
Three kinds of things. Release news when a product reaches a store or a major version ships, with a plain list of what changed. Design write-ups that explain a decision we made and the trade-offs that came with it, because the reasoning is usually more useful than the feature list. And studio notes, such as renames, policy updates, and changes to how we work.
We do not post on a schedule, and we do not pad the page. If there is nothing worth saying, nothing appears. For launch alerts on a specific product, the waitlist is the reliable channel; for everything else, this page and the status badges on each product page are the record.
