Week ending 2026-03-15 (Week 11)
Meetings and security work took up most of my time this week 
. The meeting schedule was dense, but overall very productive, which is worth highlighting 
. Security reports continue to arrive at a steady pace and required ongoing triage and follow-up 
. I also spent time on a couple of deeper technical discussions: one with Jacob around translations 
, and another reviewing CSP support for media and script assets 
, which required digging into how those pieces interact across the framework.
