It's #WPE release day, which means the first thing to change is adding the upcoming stable versions in the compatibility chart → https://wpewebkit.org/release/schedule/#compatible-components
First one done: libwpe 1.8.0 🙌
Second: WPEBackend-fdo 1.8.0 😌️
Now writing the release notes for WPE WebKit while a full build progresses slowly—gotta do 'em dist-checks, we don't want tarballs to end up in a non-buildable state! 
Time for a coffee break. The last distcheck build before uploading the WPE WebKit tarball is in the 56% done mark. BRB.
The 2.30.0 release tarball contains ~19K files, weighs 195MiB uncompressed, and XZ is so amazing that it manages to bring it down to “only” 20MiB. That's one tenth of the original size 😱
…aaaand the cat is out of the bag: https://wpewebkit.org/release/wpewebkit-2.30.0.html
Server run by the main developers of the project 
It is not focused on any particular niche interest - everyone is welcome as long as you follow our code of conduct!
There go the release notes. Now some quick testing before generating the final tarball, uploading it, and doing release announcements.
Anything that has to do with a non-incremental WebKit build takes always at least ~15 minutes, even with a beefy build machine 🕰️
