August 26, 2021

• NEW: After clicking a /leave link and leaving a group, we send one final email with a /resub link in case you've made a mistake. Clicking that link now requires a confirmation step to confirm you wish to rejoin the group. This is because some anti-spam systems click on every link in an email, and these were causing people to be automatically resubscribed to groups they had just left.
• API: For webhook events that involve a message, specifically edited_message, sent_message_accepted, sent_message_moderated, we now include the raw message in the webhook event object.
• INTERNAL: Updated the Go compiler to the latest version.
