Other relevant updates:

   - We now have Levy Muguro, an Outreachy intern who will dedicate his
   time to working on the application until early March 2026. His
   contributions can be tracked here:

   - T408915 <https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T408915>: Epubs generated
   for Bangla and French Wikisource projects have unwanted lines due to recent
   Parsoid updates. This also negatively affects the books in the app for
   these two languages.

We sincerely thank everyone involved in updating the app.
