+## Welcome to the IPFS Weekly. 👋
+
+The [InterPlanetary File System (IPFS)](https://ipfs.io/) is a new hypermedia distribution protocol, addressed by content and identity. IPFS enables the creation of completely distributed applications. It aims to make the web faster, safer, and more open. Since that’s a pretty large scope, we track development across the ecosystem in this weekly dispatch.

+### The 2019 IPFS Roadmap
+
+Wondering what comes next for IPFS? Look no further than [the newly released 2019 IPFS Roadmap](https://blog.ipfs.io/78-ipfs-2019-roadmap/), shared earlier this month. Not only did we create a roadmap, but we also revised and clarified a mission statement and expanded some of the IPFS goals. We are very excited for the rest of 2019. 😊
