We are moving to a new Missive format, it is now in the form of a podcast!

Community members are encouraged to transcribe it so that non-English speakers can benefit as well. A brief summary of the points discussed is:

1. The release of the new website, and the move to [the getmonero.org domain](https://getmonero.org/)

2. The publication of [MRL-0004, Improving Obfuscation in the CryptoNote Protocol](https://lab.monero.cc/pubs/MRL-0004.pdf)

3. Monero's [design and development goals](http://getmonero.org/design-goals/)

Dev Diaries and External Projects will resume being covered from next week. Until then!
