The OpenLayers Development Team is proud to announce the release of OpenLayers 2.3 RC3. OpenLayers 2.3 is a maintenance release, incorporating a number of minor bugfixes to the OpenLayers 2.2 release.

Fixes in this RC include:

• Improvements to the OverviewMap control.
• A fix for a longstanding bug where tiles are drawn outside the maxExtent of the map (Thanks to Bill Woodall)
• Added functionality to allow setting of multiple layers via WMS following the specification, using array syntax for layer list. (With information from Keith Pomakis)
• Some armoring and protection of the WMS Untiled layer and other layers on destroy().
• A fix to panning in an odd sized viewport.

To test 2.3 in your applications, include the following tag in your OpenLayers-powered page:

Bug reports can be filed in Trac, under the 2.3-rc3 version and the 2.3 milestone.

We look forward to your feedback!

Regards, The OpenLayers Team
