Issue 264

Happy Tuesday and another edition of CSS Layout News. I'm looking forward to the SmashingConf Live event this week, where I'll be talking about new things that are coming into CSS.

Last week a number of folk, including almost all of the MDN team, were laid off from Mozilla. I'm very sad about this news. MDN isn't going away, but like many people I worry about the future plans for the project. If your company is hiring right now, take a look at the list of ex-Mozilla employees who are now looking for work.

CSS Grid Layout Module Level 2 is now a Candidate Recommendation

If you ever want to know what has been updated in a spec, head to the Changes section, where you will find details of any additions or modifications.
