+## Agenda
+
+- https://ethereum.eth.link || ipns://ethereum.eth
+    - official Ethereum website is now hosted on IPFS + ENS 
+- subdomains in ipfs-companion update
+    - fighting some subresource quirks
+    - gist: we want companion to detect IPFS resource (eg. image linked from a public gateway) on regular websites and redirect them to local gateway without breaking page load and without producing mixed-content warning
+    - new ipfs-companion beta should land this week
+- [Opera launched!](https://blog.ipfs.io/2020-03-30-ipfs-in-opera-for-android/)
+    - > For the first time, a major web browser does not ask the user to specify which server the content should be fetched from.

+- Hugo's browser datastore changes https://github.com/ipfs/js-datastore-idb
+    - goal is to replace the leveldb one and enable users to opt-in into persistent storage on the web
+    - 37.32KB to 11.41KB
+    - batch idb x 2.93 ops/sec ±6.89% (19 runs sampled)
+    - batch level x 2.59 ops/sec ±7.02% (17 runs sampled)
+    - Fastest is batch idb
+    - next: tests, update js-ipfs
+- protocol handler API grant update 
+    - discussion started on the PR: https://github.com/ipfs/devgrants/pull/30
+    - the grant may include solving smaller issues as initial Milestones, such as solving https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=883274
+- [libp2p Pubsub based peer discovery](https://github.com/libp2p/js-libp2p-pubsub-peer-discovery)
+    - exciting development for IPFS on web pages, provides mdns-like mechanism for "local" discovery
+    - right now everyone announces on the same namespace (when compared to mdns: puts everyone in a single "LAN")
+    - next:
+        - add support for namespacing so "locality" could be customized and mean same Origin, a group of websites etc
+- Q2 OKRs for browser & connectivity - please add impact to descriptions
+- Microgrant/bounty about metamask plugin for IPFS?
+    - @lidel opened discussion in https://github.com/ipfs/devgrants/issues/35
+- https://github.com/alanshaw/ipfs-browser-sandbox
+    - Sandbox for demos, experimentation and fun times
+    - Way to play with how IPFS/IPLD resources could be represented in web browser components
