Fixed

• Visiting a product's /changelog URL now lands on the product page instead of a 404.

Added

Fixed

• Send feedback straight from the CLI with the new releases feedback command.

Added

• The org overview and sources pages now fold an organization's SDK sources into one collapsible group so SDK churn no longer crowds out the main changelog.

Added
