+  <p>July saw a lot of our attention being consumed by the upcoming Python 3.13 release; but we've also seen some other improvements to the BeeWare suite.</p>
+<div class="section" id="what-we-ve-done">
+<h2>What we've done</h2>
+<ul class="simple">
+<li>We've resolved a number of issues with iOS and Android compatibility in CPython 3.13. Although patches for iOS and Android compatibility landed months ago, a number of changes have been landed since then which have inadvertently broken compatibility with these platforms. These issues usually indicate a subtle issue with the implementation of the feature that has been added - but diagnosing and correcting the source of the problem can often take days. There have also been some small improvements made to the iOS patches, such as a configuration option <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/121947">ensuring App Store compliance for both iOS and macOS</a>.</li>
+<li>We've begun the process of backporting the CPython changes for iOS compatibility to the older supported CPython releases. So far, we've completed the port to 3.12, and the 3.11 port is mostly complete; backports for 3.10 and 3.9 should be underway shortly. This includes <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/Python-Apple-support/pull/191">significant changes to the Python-Apple-support</a> repository, switching the build of the macOS support package to be based on the official CPython download, and adding a CI test suite that can be used to simplify the process of making a new release.</li>
+<li>We've almost completed adding a <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/121595">test runner script for Android</a>. This will form the basis for an Android CPython buildbot in the very near future.</li>
+<li>We've added support for <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/cpython-apple-source-deps/commit/f2bb2149098083f84da3993db86d1106b90d9456">using an externally managed libmpdec implementation</a> to the iOS patch. This is a change that was <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/115119">recently introduced to CPython</a>, and will become required in CPython 3.15.</li>
+<li>We've <em>almost</em> completed work on <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2666">a new API for document-based apps</a>.</li>
+<li>We've developed an <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/issues/97">initial design and prototype for status icon apps</a>.</li>
+<li>We've added an API to make it <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2714">easier to add and remove commands from a Toga app</a>.</li>
+<li>We corrected an issue that was causing <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2730">intermittent Toga CI failures on macOS</a>.</li>
+<li>We've improved Briefcase's <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/1915">validation of the version of Git that a user has installed</a>.</li>
+<li>We've <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/1910">corrected an issue with the way macOS signs apps</a>. This was causing problems with apps that have particularly complex application layouts.</li>
+<li>We've modified Briefcase to use the <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/1929">newly available &quot;stripped&quot; Python Standalone binaries on Linux</a>.</li>
+<li>We've <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/1846">improved the validation of document type declarations in a Briefcase project</a>.</li>

+<h2>What's next?</h2>
+<p>In August, we'll be continuing preparations for the upcoming Python 3.13 release, and working on the mobile Python binary packaging ecosystem. The initial release candidate for Python 3.13 will be released very soon; with any luck, this means there should be less inadvertent breakages to diagnose, so we can focus on improvements to tools like <tt class="docutils literal">pip</tt>, <tt class="docutils literal">cibuildwheel</tt>, <tt class="docutils literal"><span class="pre">meson-python</span></tt> and more. We expect that this work will take most of the rest of the quarter to release; but there should be some initial signs of progress by the end of the month.</p>
+<p>We'll also be at <a class="reference external" href="https://kiwipycon.nz">Kiwi PyCon</a>, presenting a keynote about the future of Python.</p>

-  <p>December has been a short month due to end-of-year holidays, but BeeWare has still made some important progress.</p>
-<div class="section" id="what-we-ve-done">
-<h2>What we've done</h2>
-<ul class="simple">
-<li><a class="reference external" href="https://peps.python.org/pep-0730/">PEP730</a>, formalizing the introduction of iOS as a Tier 3 platform in CPython, has been <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/python/steering-council/issues/218#issuecomment-1839333665">ratified by the CPython Steering Council</a>.</li>
-<li>The <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/112738">first patch to CPython that explicitly mentions iOS</a> has been merged. This is a relatively minor change that is required for building cross-platform binary modules; we'll start submitting more substantial patches in the new year.</li>
-<li><a class="reference external" href="https://peps.python.org/pep-0738/">PEP738</a>, formalizing the introduction of Android as a Tier 3 platform in CPython, has been drafted, and is <a class="reference external" href="https://discuss.python.org/t/pep-738-adding-android-as-a-supported-platform/40975">currently under discussion</a>.</li>
-<li><a class="reference external" href="https://chaquo.com/chaquopy/chaquopy-version-15-0-1/">Chaquopy 15 was released</a>, adding support for Python 3.12 on Android. This release also improves compatibility with Android Studio's transition away from Groovy, towards Kotlin for configuration.</li>
-<li>An <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2259">implementation of OptionContainer was added for iOS</a>.</li>
-<li>A number of improvements were made to image handling, including <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2263">optimizations when creating images from internal APIs</a>, and a <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2276">correction to flexible image resizing behavior</a>.</li>
-<li>A <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2291">long standing bug that would cause macOS tables to crash</a> was resolved.</li>
-<li>The <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2260">ability to define platform-specific icons</a> was added to Toga.</li>
-<li><a class="reference external" href="https://pypi.org/project/toga/0.4.1/">Toga 0.4.1 was released</a>, incorporating the features and bug fixes from the last 2 months.</li>
-<li>Work has begun on a <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/2266">cross-platform Camera API</a> . This currently works on iOS, with a draft implementation on macOS. Before this work can land, we need to <a class="reference external" href="https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/issues/547">add support in Briefcase for declaring permissions</a>; a design for this has been proposed, and will be implemented early in the new year.</li>
-</ul>
-</div>
-<div class="section" id="what-s-next">
-<h2>What's next?</h2>
-<p>When we return from the end-of-year break, we'll be back into developing Toga. In the near future, you should see an OptionContainer on Android, and permission support in Briefcase; once that work is wrapped, we'll start looking at more more hardware APIs and missing widgets. You should also start to see more patches land in CPython to support iOS, and the finalisation of <a class="reference external" href="https://peps.python.org/pep-0738/">PEP 738</a>.</p>
