This worked with Philz recovery but it will probably install with TWRP just fine as well.

** Please note, TWRP through v2.8.0.1 is still not working dependably for making backups and restores but it works fine for everything else.

No changelog yet as far as I know.
The only really obvious change I noted is WiFi Calling does not appear to be included.

Are we able to reverse flash firmware or are we stuck after updating?

This is just like a regular rom. The only thing I noticed after flashing back to a backup of ne5, the phone did a hands free activation and then checked for an updated prl.
