OpenJS and Security Updates...
summary
OpenJS Foundation reports concrete security wins: almost 2 billion websites rely on JS, the Foundation hosts 40 projects, and jQuery still appears on 77% of sites. Node.js ships rapid security fixes (Node 19 and 20) backed by Alpha Omega funding from Google and Microsoft; Electron reaches v24 while WebDriver 8 and frequent ESLint releases land. Collaboration spaces and working groups add rotations, automated permission controls, and nearly $1M from the Sovereign Tech Fund to improve supply‑chain resilience.
