+Happy May Day :tada:
+
+The Jekyll team is happy to announce the release of `v3.8.1`, which fixes
+a couple of bugs that were introduced two weeks ago in `v3.8.0`. If you have
+experienced trouble regarding post excerpts or non-published posts, this release
+should be the remedy. Thanks to @Chaosed0 and @domLocalHeroes for originally
+reporting these issues, and to @ashmaroli for fixing them so quickly.
+
+As a reminder, we have started work on Jekyll 4.0. If there are any
+features that you would love to see added to Jekyll, or any pain points you
+would like to see removed, please do add your ideas to the [Jekyll 4.0 idea
+list](https://github.com/jekyll/jekyll/issues/6948).
