" summary

Panel outlines concrete progress and next steps: selenium 4 won't fix all browser quirks but the W3C WebDriver spec is largely implemented, CI is turning green daily, and bi‑directional protocol work plus a script pinning PR aim to cut large JS payloads and enable better logging and subscriptions. GeckoDriver gains Android/Fennec support in an imminent release. Contributions happen via the w3c/webdriver and selenium GitHub repos, Slack/IRC, running tests to find regressions, filing reproducible bugs, translating docs, and the new Hugo‑based website is now live.
