Open issues and PR that need attention
- Removal of legacy W3C endpoints in Python - https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/10031
- They will be removed from JavaScript and Python, but not Java. The Grid still needs them to offer support for JWP.
- JWP is not supported, but access is still temporarily provided.
Releases
How do we want to handle patches? E.g. 4.0.x
- We will not tag the tree when there is a patch release.
- If there are new assets (Selenium Server, etc…), they get uploaded to the previous release.
- E.g. If we release patch 4.1.1, assets get uploaded to 4.1.0
What do we want in 4.2.0?
- Handling actions class methods - https://github.com/SeleniumHQ/selenium/issues/9996
Documentation
- PR doing a reorg of the English docs, other languages will follow after the merge.
