This edge release includes experimental improvements to the Linkerd proxy's
request buffering and backpressure infrastructure.
Additionally, we've fixed several bugs when installing Linkerd with Helm,
updated the CLI to allow using both port numbers _and_ port ranges with the
`--skip-inbound-ports` and `--skip-outbound-ports` flags, and fixed a dashboard
error that can occur if the dashboard is open in a browser while updating Linkerd.
**Note**: The `linkerd-proxy` version included with this release is more
experimental than usual. We'd love your help testing, but be aware that there
might be stability issues.
