Here is the GNU sed home page:
http://gnu.org/s/sed/
For a summary of changes and contributors, see:
http://git.sv.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=sed.git;a=shortlog;h=v4.8
or run this command from a git-cloned sed directory:
git shortlog v4.7..v4.8
To summarize the 865 gnulib-related changes, run these commands
from a git-cloned sed directory:
git checkout v4.8
git submodule summary v4.7
Here are the compressed sources:
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sed/sed-4.8.tar.gz (2.2MB)
https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sed/sed-4.8.tar.xz (1.3MB)
Here are the GPG detached signatures[*]:

https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/sed/sed-4.8.tar.xz.sig

[*] Use a .sig file to verify that the corresponding file (without the
.sig suffix) is intact. First, be sure to download both the .sig file
and the corresponding tarball. Then, run a command like this:
gpg --verify sed-4.8.tar.gz.sig
If that command fails because you don't have the required public key,
then run this command to import it:
gpg --keyserver keys.gnupg.net --recv-keys 7FD9FCCB000BEEEE
and rerun the 'gpg --verify' command.
This release was bootstrapped with the following tools:
Autoconf 2.69.202-d78a
Automake 1.16a
Gnulib v0.1-3167-g6b9d15b8b
NEWS
* Noteworthy changes in release 4.8 (2020-01-14) [stable]
** Bug fixes
"sed -i" now creates temporary files with correct umask (limited to u=rwx).
Previously sed would incorrectly set umask on temporary files, resulting
in problems under certain fuse-like file systems.
[bug introduced in sed 4.2.1]
** Release
distribute gzip-compressed tarballs once again
** Improvements
a year's worth of gnulib development, including improved DFA performance
