Links all check out. I caught a couple of minor things mentioned below.
| - [Briefcase has been updated to use WiX 5.0](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/2355). This enabled us to resolve a number of issues related to MSI support, including resolving an issue with [long file names in packaged content](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/2390). | ||
| - We added support for [port forwarding when running Android apps](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/2369). This will be used as part of adding debugger support to Briefcase. | ||
| - We added a new [topic guide on publishing apps to the macOS App Store](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/2360). | ||
| - We improved a number of error messages generated by Briefcase, providing more guidance on [how to run an iOS app on device](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/2410), [problems that can be caused by virus scanners](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/2400), and how to resolve [inconsistent file content in macOS wheels](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/2397). |

Unless "on device" is a technical phrase, this should probably be updated.

It is... ish. "On device" and "on a device" would both be correct; "on a device" is probably less confusing to a non-technical audience.

| - We reviewed our contribution guides for [Briefcase](https://github.com/beeware/briefcase/pull/2363) and [Toga](https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/3597) to remove inconsistencies in the contribution experience. | ||
| - We added a [DateInput widget to Toga's GTK backend](https://github.com/beeware/toga/pull/3647) |
