+We also added the ability to load "single file hubs" from UCSC. These must be
+manually pasted in the "Add connection" but in the future, we may add ability to
+auto-load the hubs via the URL bar or similar. You can find a large amount of
+these single file hubs from GenArk! https://hgdownload.soe.ucsc.edu/hubs/

+Finally, this release also fixes an issue people saw with auto-updates for
+JBrowse Desktop on Mac failing.
