Hi!

Tor Browser 8.0.5 is ready for testing. Bundles can be found at

https://people.torproject.org/~boklm/builds/8.0.5-build2/

This new release updates Firefox to 60.5.0esr and Tor to the first
stable release in the 0.3.5 series, 0.3.5.7.

Apart from that it contains a number of backports from the alpha series,

loading PDF documents.
