 ### Added
 - The `CONNECT_REQUEST_TIMEOUT` environment variable, which configures the request timeout for all blocking HTTP and HTTPS operations. This value translates into seconds (e.g., `CONNECT_REQUEST_TIMEOUT=60` is equivalent to 60 seconds.) By default, this value is 300.

+- Extra files were not being included in deploy Voila.
+
+- Error message to indicate the Python also has to be configured in Connect.
