We released the preview version of 1.30.0 today for testing and feedback. The official release of this version will be on January 15th, but we encourage folks to download and test the preview version and provide feedback.
If you are able to use the preview version to update a development version of your site, that would also be good. We do not recommend updating production sites with the preview release.
Read the release notes for a complete list of what to expect in this release.
