Pantheon release notes

The arg separator is used in PHP generated URLs to separate arguments. For PHP 5.5, we changed the default PHP arg separator from & to &. To use the old arg separator, modify settings.php or wp-config.php.

Previously, for sites on PHP 5.5 (WordPress sites default, Drupal sites can upgrade now), code changes were only refreshed every 60 seconds, regardless of the environment. Now, Dev/Multidev environments on 5.5 will immediately see code changes, and Test/Live now refresh every 2 seconds.

Update: Pantheon no longer allows accessing locked environments based on the Photon user agent.

If you use Jetpack’s Photon tool, the Photon user agent can now access files on locked sites.
