After an internal meeting last week we decided we are going to backport select features of Halcyon 6.4 to our current mainline. The fact is that there are a few reasons that may delay a 6.4 release:
First and most important is the numerous edge cases with older CMS's that we still need to take care.
Secondly we will be offline (Summer vacation) between the 10th and 30th of August (Our technical support will be 24/7/365 as always).

Our original plan was to have the engine detect the version of the CMS and apply filters on demand but this adds complexity which means we may not be able to release on time. Thus we decided we will be backporting some features we think are extremely important for performance of specific payloads.

One of the payloads that will get a big boost in performance is media heavy apps, in our internal testing we have on average a 38% boost in delivery of the content. which is the difference between a 3.6s to 1.4s page delivery.

Last Thursday(2018/07/05) we started pushing the release to all of our servers and since Saturday(2018/07/07) every site is been served using the latest version.

We will still try to hit our target for an August release.
