E048: No Workspace Updates this week. Wait what?! Don't worry, we still found topics to update you on, 1:1 audio calls in Chat on Mobile, IMAP control by group in admin, Drive for desktop update etc

It seems the Google Workspace Dev team took a well-deserved break this week as we discovered when we started preparing for this episode, there were no official published releases this week. We dug up some other releases for you and of course relevant Google news of the week.
