+* Release date: November 7, 2017
+* Release post: https://wp.me/p1moTy-6rk
+
+**Major Enhancements**
+
+* Jetpack is now fully compatible with WordPress's [new Gallery Widget](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/09/25/introducing-the-gallery-widget/). Your old Gallery widgets powered by Jetpack will switch to the new Widget when you update to WordPress 4.9.
+
+**Enhancements**
+* We have improved the performance when loading the Jetpack Settings in the dashboard by optimizing the number of calls made when loading the page.
+* We have updated the plugin to do a better job of cleaning up after itself whenever you decide to remove Jetpack from your site.
+* We made some changes to reduce the number of connection issues that may happen on a site when switching from HTTP to HTTPs.
+* We made some performance improvements to the Jetpack dashboard interface, to make sure your options and settings are loaded faster there.
+* Error messages are also better in the Jetpack Dashboard; whenever you can't update settings, Jetpack will provide you with more information about why.
+* We improved the Jetpack update process to make sure updating Jetpack does not stress your database during it, even on high-traffic sites.
+* The next version of WordPress, 4.9, will be released very soon and will include [a lot of changes to its code editors](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/10/22/code-editing-improvements-in-wordpress-4-9/). Jetpack's Custom CSS will be fully compatible with the new editors and their syntax highlighting feature.
+* We also made changes to make sure Jetpack was fully compatible with the [role and capability changes](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/10/15/improvements-for-roles-and-capabilities-in-4-9/) in WordPress 4.9.
+* We have made some performance improvements to the Carousel feature.
+* Contact Form: do not process shortcodes in widgets when WordPress itself does, starting in 4.9.
+* Contact Form: we have improved the "website" field to display better error messages when you don't supply a URL. We have also improved the look of the date picker for the date field.
+* Contact Form: avoid duplicate slashes when loading editor style.
+* Masterbar: update the "Plugins" menu item to match the updated design on WordPress.com.
+* Open Graph: do not display images smaller than Facebook's required size.
+* Sharing: use Google's minified libraries to improve performance when loading Google buttons.
+* Sharing: update Open Graph Image tags appearing on the home page to offer better alternatives based on your site settings in Appearance > Customize.
+* We improved the way sitemaps are built so they do not consume too much memory when they are generated.
+* WP.me Shorlinks: those links will now always use HTTPS.
+* Spellchecker: we improved the admin interface to make it more clear when adding ignored phrases and saving them.
+* Subscriptions: we added a filter so third party developers can track comment subscription activations.
+* Sync: synchronize plugin action links to add that information to WordPress.com.
+* Sync: improvements to better track theme and widget changes.
+* VideoPress: we removed Jetpack version locking for directly embedded VideoPress videos to ensure all users receive the newest version of the player.
+* We added a new filter (`jetpack_google_translate_widget_layout`) to the Google Translate Widget to allow you to change its layout.
+* WordPress.com REST API: improve comment management for all roles, including post authors.
+* WordPress.com REST API: allow site owners to manage comments on attachment pages from WordPress.com.
+* WordPress.com REST API: improve the response from the API when WordPress' autoupdates are disabled.
+
+**Improved compatibility**
+* You can now use Jetpack's contact form and Yoast SEO's Focus keywords on the same page without any issues in the editor.
+* Top Posts Widget: avoid Fatal Errors when the widget is used on a site using WPML, and when a popular post cannot be found by WPML.
+* Sync: add more Custom Post Types from third-party plugins to the list of things we do not synchronize with WordPress.com, to improve sync performance.
+* Sharing: since [Press This is now a plugin and not part of WordPress itself](https://make.wordpress.org/core/2017/11/02/press-this-in-4-9/), we removed the Press This sharing button if you are not using the plugin.
+
+**Bug fixes**
+* We now avoid displaying notices to user roles that cannot benefit or act based on the info in the notices.
+* Gravatar Hovercards: avoid PHP Notices when the user info is an object.

+* VideoPress: avoid missing file warning in the editor when using an RTL language.
