The change log is here:
http://jira.codehaus.org/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&pid=10311&fixfor=11771
Geoserver Wiki for this release is available from the main Geoserver
wiki page (http://docs.codehaus.org/display/GEOS/Home).
Here's a quick summary of changes:
1. JAI should no longer be required - this time I mean it.
If you get an error regarding a security issue (because the jars
are 'sealed') please leave a message on the geoserver-devel
mailing list. This will only occur if you installed JAI.
You can do one of the following:
a) remove from the lib/ directory "jai-core-1.1.3-alpha.jar",
"jai_imageio-1.1-alpha.jar" and
"jai_codec-1.1.3-alpha.jar".
b) uninstall JAI
I've had one report of this problem and I think I solved it. I
have been unable to reproduce the issue.
2. I believe I fixed the error-logging issue for tomcat users. Please
tell me if the problem still occurs.
3. You can now use <Function> elements in your WFS <Filter>
4. KML (google map) output supported (james macgill)
5. Several other bugs fixed in geoserver and geotools
If you look at the roadmap for the next few releases
(http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS?report=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project:roadmap-panel)
you should see we are very rapidly approaching whats required for the
1.3.0 release.
The geoserver-devel mailing list has been "bursting at the seams"
recently with good ideas and discussions for whats going to be
happening over the longer term.
