I have a few machines + friends at my disposal for testing updates pre release and testing 1.8 has gone well thus far. (as a precaution) For this update I'm asking that you please report any networking related issues in the official ITP discord ( https://discord.com/invite/ejdzHYB ) so I may address them immediately. You may see small patches here and there as a result.
