Cherry-picked some fixes for iOS:

• [x] Touch handling: https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/8efc098646f08efa7215c8b4368ea3438435d0e1 and https://github.com/facebook/react-native/commit/3874c012920647c63dac5a806f7faf1b7d00e5d2

(I'm being a little more generous with cherry picks since these are bug fixes and there is still a lot of time until the release.)

You have a typo. 0.23.0-rc5 should be 0.24.0-rc5, I think.

[ide]

Oops, thanks

[satya164]

When are we releasing the stable version? ;p

[ide]

on monday

[grabbou]

Yes, I am doing that now BTW - will be up in 3/4 hours max.

[ide]

No compatible version found: react-native@^0.24.0
NPM is showing version 0.23.1 as the latest but showing next as 0.25.0-rc.

[oblador]

@Benmidi: It seems the released failed at the CI.

The Android dependency hasn't been deployed correctly.

1. rm -rf node_modules && npm i
2. Go to /node_modules/react-native/android/com/facebook/react/

[bestander]

disregard the deleted comment, I figured it out

[rickli1989]

Is this fixed ?
response.json() hangs when Chrome debugging is enabled: #6679 (fix in fcc89e9)
I still have this issue in 0.24.1
