The Julia developers are pleased to announce the release of v1.8.4, the fourth patch release in the 1.8 stable series. You can download binaries at [https://julialang.org/downloads](https://julialang.org/downloads) in the “current stable release” section. Binaries are available for the following platforms, listed here by [support tier](https://julialang.org/downloads/#supported_platforms):

- Tier 1:
  - Linux x86\_64 (glibc)
  - Linux i686 (glibc)
  - macOS x86\_64 (Intel or Rosetta)
  - Window x86\_64

  - FreeBSD x86\_64
  - Linux AArch64 (glibc)
  - Linux x86\_64 (musl)
  - macOS AArch64 (M-series)
  - Windows i686

As a patch release, 1.8.4 contains no new features or breaking changes, only bug fixes, documentation improvements, and performance improvements. You can see the list of commits included since 1.8.3 [here](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/compare/v1.8.3...v1.8.4). We recommend that anyone currently using an earlier 1.8 version upgrade to 1.8.4.

Note that `1.8` on [GitHub Actions](https://github.com/julia-actions/setup-julia), [Travis](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/julia/), [AppVeyor](https://github.com/JuliaCI/Appveyor.jl), and [Cirrus](https://github.com/ararslan/CirrusCI.jl) now refer to 1.8.4.

Let us know in the [issue tracker](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/issues) if you run into any issues. Please note that any bugs you may encounter should be posted there rather than being discussed in this thread to ensure visibility to the developers.

Happy holidays to all!
