Bug#990940: release-notes: wpewebkit to be covered by security support in bullseye
Package: release-notes
Severity: important
Tags: patch
Debian provides security support for the WebKitGTK browser engine
(source package: webkit2gtk). For bullseye we also want to support
wpewebkit, which is developed by the same team, follows a very similar
release schedule and numbering system, shares most of the code and
almost all CVEs fixes apply to both ports.
See #990754 for more details.
I'm attaching a patch for the release notes.

For general web browser use we recommend Firefox or Chromium.
