Scheduled

Due to an issue encountered after the release of 4000.8 to production we will be doing an off-cycle release of Blackboard SaaS 4000.8.0 to Production environments. The issue is related to text styles, headings not converting correctly and causing oops messages when trying to save. This will be a UI only update and will be applied as soon as available.
