current sources of informations about what the team is working on and what's next;
common issues (at least explanations for nowiki tags);

I'd like to add research info as well, but T126755... Also, need to find out whether https://edit-analysis.wmflabs.org/compare/ is well documented somewhere.

In the meanwhile I updated https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/VisualEditor/Target_browser_matrix which is linked from the FAQ page, thanks to Ed's help.

I had asked the Taskforce an opinion about this, https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Topic:Ttdv9ecbo0qblxnj&action=history , but got no reply. I am afraid I will mark the page as Historical and decline this task afterwards. It should be said there aren't many wikis without VE by default any longer, so we probably don't need it so much anymore.
