MapServer 4.8.0 RC3 released

[Daniel Morissette]

Hi Everyone,

A few good issues were found and fixed since MapServer 4.8.0-rc2, so we 
have to issue a third release candidate: 4.8.0-rc3
This will hopefully be the last release candidate leading to 4.8.0, 
which we'd hope to be able to release sometimes next week.

The source is available in the download area of the website at 
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/download/beta/

A summary of the fixes since rc2 is included below.
