#### <sub><sup><a name="5023" href="#5023">:link:</a></sup></sub> fix
* The dashboard page refreshes its data every 5 seconds. Until now, it was possible (especially for admin users) for the dashboard to initiate an ever-growing number of API calls, unnecessarily consuming browser, network and API resources. Now the dashboard will not initiate a request for more data until the previous request finishes. #5023
#### <sub><sup><a name="4607" href="#4607">:link:</a></sup></sub> feature
* Add experimental support for exposing traces to [Jaeger] or [Stackdriver].
With this feature enaled (via `--tracing-(jaeger|stackdriver)-*` variables in
`concourse web`), the `web` node starts recording traces that represent the
various steps that a build goes through, sending them to the configured trace
collector. #4607
As ths feature is being built using [OpenTelemetry], expect to have support for
other systems soon.
