Welcome to Release 0.7.2.8 or Revision 2050, up from 2020. This is a bug-fixing release and as such is mostly composed of minor changes.

Our next deploy will probably be early January (if we need to deploy more fixes).

Highlights

• Limitations removed from the 'works' page for collections. You may now see all works saved to a collection.
• 'OR' option added to filters - you may now select (for example) multiple fandoms to filter on
