RStudio Workbench:
- RStudio Server Pro has been renamed to RStudio Workbench to more accurately reflect its cross-language editing capabilities.
- BREAKING: RStudio Workbench’s Linux packages have new file names, rstudio-workbench-* instead of rstudio-server-pro-*. The operating system package name remains rstudio-server, so installs and upgrades will work correctly. Scripts which refer to the .deb or .rpm file names directly will need to be updated.
- Added support for JupyterLab 3
- Add support for using OpenID and SAML authentication schemes when a proxy is required for outbound requests
- Updated product licensing engine (LimeLM) to TurboActivate and TurboFloat to v4.4.3.

VS Code:
- Visual Studio Code is fully supported on RStudio Workbench and no longer in beta

If install-vs-code was run with a previous release and you’d like to change your configuration, the configuration can be manually removed from vscode.conf or the script can be rerun to regenerate vscode.conf
- Added rstudio-server install-vs-code-ext script to install the RStudio Workbench VS Code extension in a global directory and upgrade code-server to 3.9.3
- When a global extensions directory isn’t configured, install the RStudio Workbench extension on the first VS Code session launch per user
- Disable the extensions marketplace in VS Code sessions when a global directory is configured that the user does not have write access to
- Improved error messaging for VS Code session errors from verify-installation

RStudio Server Open Source:
- BREAKING: RStudio when served via http erroneously reported its own address as https during redirects if the header X-Forwarded-Proto was defined by a proxy. That could lead to a confusing proxy setup. That has been fixed, but existing proxy installations with redirect rewite settings matching for https may have to be adjusted.
- BREAKING: RStudio Server no longer supports Internet Explorer 11.
- Added session-suspend-on-incomplete-statement option to enable more aggressive session suspension behavior
- New env-vars configuration file simplifies setting environment variables for the main RStudio server process.
