Hello!

We are releasing +496 "Travel + 1 update" today, and it has some pretty big changelogs!

As a reminder, our Summer vacation is starting this week. We have time for one or two hotfixes before heading off to vacation, which is why it was important to have this released at the start of the week. There are probably some new bugs introduced in this update, but we tried to do our best with testing even though time was quite limited! We will also try to get as many of the new high priority bugs fixed as possible before the vacation starts.

We estimate that the maintenance will take one more hour, so it'll end around 15:00 UTC+0!
