Project Reunion First Servicing Release 0.5.5 is Now Available!!

[dayman40]

Project Reunion 0.5.5 is a stable servicing release that fixes a few critical bugs.

If you're building an app with Project Reunion for the first time, follow the installation instructions here.

If you have an app that's already using Project Reunion 0.5, you can update to the latest release by following the instructions here.

Bugs fixed in Project Reunion 0.5.5:

• Memory leaks caused by subscribing to some framework element events and page navigation due to a C#/WinRT issue

• Alt+F4 does not close desktop apps

• Drag and drop does not work with touch or pen due to an issue with StartDragAsync()

• Black flash on WebView2 when setting Visibility to Collapsed

• Microsoft.ProjectReunion.Foundation is breaking WPF compilations

• Installing the Project Reunion 0.5 NuGet package results in build failures in projects that target AnyCPU

• Crash when panel containing SwapChainPanel is opened multiple times

• Acrylic brush renders transparent

• A few bugs having to do with GC/ObjectDisposedExceptions, marshaling value and nullable types (TimeSpan, IReference, etc) in C#/WinRT are now fixed. In order to get these GC fixes, you must use the latest .NET 5.0.6 SDK which will be available in May. See our update instructions for how you can explicitly reference the latest 5.0.6 SDK.

I think there's a typo, 0.5.5 has just been released.
As per this announcement on Twitter, the above-linked upgrade doc, and the VSIX marketplace version.
But not yet shown as a release
