Thank Jon Sneyers - I'm mostly just repeating what he's had to say!

If anyone wants to learn more about JPEG XL, Jon has a good walkthrough on the JPEG XL slidedeck. It's been about half a year since Google made their controversial decision, but I'm hoping the fight is not over. Many industry giants are mad at Google (and Mozilla, to a lesser extent) over this, and browsers are pretty much the only place where JPEG XL doesn't exist. Unfortunately, it's a very important place for an image format to exist.
