      <description>The lab closed for ten days so we could work in peace. Here&apos;s what changed.

All seven apps move to 1.2.0 (1.3.0 for GuideExpress), with a full visual
overhaul: the site&apos;s colours, a light theme by default, a navigation column on
the left instead of tabs, empty screens that tell you what to do next, and input
errors shown under the field they&apos;re about rather than in a dialog box. No
more system windows getting in the way for no reason: out of 275 dialogs
reviewed, only one in five deserved to stop you.

The forge is open. Browse project code, open an issue, follow a milestone
and review a merge proposal — without leaving the member area, and without an
account anywhere else.

You can fix a translation without knowing git. Settings → Translations:
you propose, we review, the correction lands in the catalogue.

Two-factor authentication is available (Settings → Security), with any TOTP
app.

And the chat gained the means to moderate itself: sanctions, exclusion, and a
delay before you can post links — long enough to get to know each other.

Welcome back 👋</description>

      <description>Four conversation upgrades at once:
• Who&apos;s online — the number of connected members shows live.
• Unread messages — a per-room badge marks what you haven&apos;t seen yet.
• Search — find a message by keyword, room or author.
• Emoji reactions — react in one click: 👍 ❤️ 😄 🎉 🚀 👀.</description>

      <description>Every username in the chat is now clickable: you reach the member&apos;s profile —
avatar, bio, join date and proposed ideas.
Visible to members only, never open to the web. Your email address never appears
there.</description>
