Besides Ubuntu 16.10 being released today and it being the second day of Steam Dev Days 2016, also exciting for today is the release of the Chrome/Chromium 54 web-browser release.

Chrome 54 is shipping with Custom Elements V1 support, the BroadcastChannel API as a one-to-many messaging interface, SVG 2.0 support changes, V8 JavaScript improvements, and more.

There are also many security fixes, as usual, with this latest update. More details on Chrome 54 via the Chrome release blog.
