• Increase timeout and vite version #11492 - to close dependabot PR and reduce random GUI test failures.
• Investigated Cannot open project in cloud #11493 - the root cause is y-doc server version mismatch between newest nightlies (develop builds) and cloud ydoc-server. We plan to add version check to display at least a warning soon (after December release). How to properly handle version mismatch is still to be discussed.
• In progress: Uploading/pasting images in documentation panel. #10059

• Consider additional self types #11451 – CB displays methods of Any now, and the mechanism is general enough to work in other cases where we have parentType information available.
• Reconnect visualizations when switching their types #11494 – waits for merge because of unrelated issues on develop. We prevent visualizations from ever receiving invalid data (invalid here means “stale data from another visualization type”). We are also aware of current issues with error handling inside custom visualizations (WIP) and found a bug in Vue that was mitigated.
• Add Write button to component menu #11523 – rework (or rather a replacement) of the Record button on components.
