+Release notes
+2018.1.0b10 Release Notes (diff since 2018.1.0b9)
+
+System Requirements Changes
+
+    Removed support for Windows XP in standalone player builds. Windows Vista is the now minimum supported OS for Windows standalone player.
+    Deprecated support for MonoDevelop. VisualStudio is now the recommended and supported C# editor on both macOS and Windows.
+
+Known Issues in 2018.1.0b10
+
+    Camera: MAC OSX - Raycasting is incorrect (related to Camera.main.ScreenPointToRay).
+    GI: "SerializedObject target has been destroyed" appears after environment lighting change.
+    GI: Editor crashes after assigning Light Probe Group to Anchor Override Parameter.
+    GI: In built Player the IsLightmapBakeTypeSupported() GCAllocs 17B every frame when CPU usage is 0.0%.
+    GI: [PLM] Supersampling doesn't work.
+    GI: Progressive Lightmapper doesn't work on Linux, which means that all 3D templates will crash on launch. The 2D template is not affected however.
+    Graphics: Editor crashes at ImageFilters::BlitMultiTap when stepping into Graphics.BlitMultiTap() method.
+    Particles: Line renderer is rendered in scene/game window when selecting object in the Project window.
+    Scripting: Editor crashes when calling NativeArray<T>.Equals().
+    SpeedTree: SpeedTree meshes have bad texcoord data after updating to 2018.1
+
+Known Issues - won't be fixed in 2018.1
+    OSX: [OSX 10.13][2018.1] Rapidly switching between 2 game view tabs multiple times may freeze or crash the editor when rendering with Metal. Note: it's much harder to reproduce on the latest 10.13.4 Beta (17E160e).
+
+Features
+    Package Manager: Updated Package Manager user interface (from where a project's packages can be managed and new packages can be discovered) to v1.8.1. What's new in 1.8.1:
+        We no longer display the "Recommended" tag for packages whose version is suffixed with alpha, beta or experimental.
+        The built-in packages tab is now hidden, as it is not yet fully functional.
+        Fixed sorting of the package list in the "All" tab.
+        Fix to prevent loop error report with an invalid manifest.
+        Fix to prevent infinite error reporting when an exception is thrown during an operation.
+        Fix to only show "View Changes" when there is an "Update" button to display.
+        Fixed typos in the dialog displayed when updating the Package Manager UI itself.
+        Added "View Documentation" link to the package details area.
+        Added "View changes" link to the package details area.
+
