Hi!

We are happy to announce the first Tor Browser 8.0.7 release candidate
for wider testing. Bundles can be found at

https://people.torproject.org/~boklm/builds/8.0.7-build3/

This new release updates Firefox to 60.6.0esr and Tor to the latest
stable version, 0.3.5.8. Moreover, it makes Tor Browser more
interoperable with Noscript by telling it that it is running in a Tor
Browser context.
