Before jumping into 1.8.0, a few updates will be made to the 1.7.x branch to help stability until 1.8.0's release.
The first update will be to fix an issue with the scene selected.
To keep anyone from leaving required settings empty, the render settings will also be updated to watch for empty fields.
There is also an issue where new bucket errors are not showing, so new errors will be added for this particular issue.
There is also a possible issue with the bucket region not updating correctly when a new bucket is created on AWS. Bucket region logic will be updated to check periodically.
Lastly, there is an issue with instance requests not being removed when the region doesn't have available servers. Instance requests will be set to cancel after all errors.
