 ## Companion
 
-The past months we've made some incremental improvements to Companion. We patched an issue where Companion could sometimes output remote provider authentication tokens into logs.
-We now run Companion tests on Node.js 6 on each commit, in addition to Node.js 10, to make sure that we don't break compatibility in a minor release. Node.js 6 support will be dropped in a future major release, and we recommend you upgrade soon if you are still using it.

-In 1.7, we also fixed the naming of the Galician locale. The locale names follow a `country_LANGUAGE` format. Previously, we used `es_GL` for Galician, which was intended to mean "Galician in Spain", but which _actually_ means "Spanish in Greenland"! The correct way to refer to Galician is as `gl_ES`:
