Octopus February Release 2018.2

Octopus Deploy 2018.2 introduces several new features, including enhanced AWS support with steps to deploy CloudFormation templates, delete existing stacks, and execute custom scripts using AWS CLI, all facilitated by Octopus providing the necessary credentials and CLI tools. The release also unveils the "Deploy a Release" step, allowing for better coordination of multiple projects by enabling one project to trigger another's deployment. Additionally, the update introduces external workers, which allow scripts to run on a Tentacle instead of the Octopus Server, enhancing security and performance. Improvements have been made to dashboards for better readability in large instances and to audit logs for more detailed tracking of changes, especially regarding Project Variables. The release also includes changes to the Packages API to accommodate new feed types, requiring updates to the Octopus.Client.dll for compatibility. Users are encouraged to follow standard upgrading procedures and can find more details on specific changes in GitHub tickets.
