I’ll keep this update short. Debian has decided to ship the latest version of WebKitGTK+, 2.16.3, in its upcoming Stretch release. Since Debian was the last major distribution holding out on providing WebKit security updates, this is a big deal. Huge thanks to Jeremy Bicha for making this possible.
The bad news is that Debian is still considering whether or not to provide periodic security updates after the release, so there might not be any. But maybe there will be. We will have to wait and see. At least releasing with the latest version is a big step in the right direction.
