## Highlights of the WPEBackend-fdo 1.12.0 release

- Added API to obtain the wl_resource for SHM exported buffers.
- Added unstable DMA-BUF pool API for buffer management.
- Fixed UI process getting stuck when navigating across different security
  origins.
- Fixed invalid usage of Wayland client connections in the nested compositor
  which caused crashes in some situations.
- Made it easier to override where Meson looks for wayland-scanner during
  cross-compilation, using a native machine file.

## What is WPEBackend-fdo?

WPEBackend-fdo is a backend implementation for WPE WebKit which targets
FreeDesktop.org (FDO) technologies, and uses Wayland for graphics output.
