I just saw this announced by Nanoracks; someone earlier on this BBS was 
asking about a TECHEDSAT-8 cubesat.

http://nanoracks.com/nanoracks-completes-15th-cubesat-mission-on-international-space-station/

four cubesats released: Assume it was done on January 31 2019?

The satellites deployed and their timestamps were:

*CAT-1/CAT-2:* 10:25 GMT/4:25 CST
*Delphini-1:* 12:00 GMT/6:00 CST
*UNITE:* 13:40 GMT/7:40 CST
*TechEdSat-8:* 16:45 GMT/10:45 CST

TechEdSat-8, and Unite are listed on Nasa's ELaNa site; 
https://www.nasa.gov/content/upcoming-elana-cubesat-launches

and only Delphini-1 is listed as being coordinated(that I could find) ;
