We delayed moving the preview branch to stable in order to fix issues surrounding our
ReadKey / ReadLine logic. This preview contains a new minor release of PowerShell
Editor Services with an entire rewrite of that logic, utilizing what we hope is a much
better workaround for the underlying issue in .NET's Console.ReadKey. Please give this
release a thorough testing, especially in the console with PSReadLine.

vscode-powershell

This release does not include the latest major update of PowerShell Editor Services. We
are updating the stable extension to bring some bug fixes forward. Please try out the
PowerShell Preview extension for the latest and hopefully greatest experience, and
help us squash those bugs!

PowerShellEditorServices

This extension update includes PowerShell Editor Services v2.5.3, a re-release of
v2.5.2 which was the last version before the major pipeline and threading overhaul was
merged in v3.0.0. By re-releasing we are able to update the module's signature with a
renewed certificate.

We're hard at work continuing to improve the stability and coverage of the PowerShell
Preview so we can bring the updates to the regular extension. Most recently we got the unit tests

through the debugger. We're continuing to work to resolve this and re-enable the rest of
our tests. Please keep using the Preview if you're able and filing bug reports, we
appreciate it!
