RC Testing is in progress. The bandwidth code review took a longer time than expected.

Item number 5 was a typo:

Removed the old bandwidth system. This includes the removal of several API fields that were specific to bandwidth and the removal of the witness_api, which was used exclusively for returning information related to bandwidth. (#2039)

Thanks Man for the Notice.!!!
