This is on our radar but we held off from it with the initial 8.0.0 launch to reduce the number of moving parts. We're aware and will tackle this soon (TM)

All of this is prepared, we just need to flip the switch when we feel like we are ready.

The loader script is blocked on #12188

@rodolfoBee @Lms24 @lforst When will the CDN be available?

[mydea]

We are currently testing the v8 version with the Loader, and expect to release it to the public soon! We'll keep you posted here.

[borisyordanov]

@mydea It's great to hear that you're making progress on this. Can you please clarify what "soon" means? A day? A week? A month?

[mydea]

We hope to release this either this or next week, depending on how the testing goes!

Noting that v8 is available in my Sentry settings -- so seems to be live?

[Lms24]

Hey @erikt9 yes it's live since a couple of days. We don't default to v8 being the preselected version yet but you can switch to it manually. Let us know if everything works for you!
