Setting up an on-call call schedule shouldn't require a whitepaper and a series of blog posts to implement well. We're constantly adjusting the knobs and levers available to you while trying to prevent too much complexity. This week, we've shipped a small UI overhaul of the settings screen to make finding what you need easier and the outcomes clearer.

Coverage: Improvements to date handling in the display of stint coverage have stopped "backdated" coverage from appearing.
General: Updates to various dependencies. Gotta stay current!
General: More resilient date handling in stint search.
