[NewsBot]

A new Crystal blog post/announcement has been posted!

We are releasing the first patch release of the 1.7 series.

Pre-built packages are available on GitHub Releases and our official distribution channels. See crystal-lang.org/install for installation instructions.

This patch only includes a bugfix for a regression introduced in 1.7.0 affecting the playground. With this patch the playground should be working again. If you find any further issue, please report it.
