Dear all,
On behalf of the entire GeoServer 3 team, I wanted to reach out 
personally to share the news in case it went unnoticed: GeoServer 3.0.0 
is now generally available.

This is the release the crowdfunding campaign set out to deliver, and it 
is the moment your contribution pays out. The platform you helped fund 
is now shipping on a current, supported foundation: JDK 17 and Spring 7, 
modern raster processing with ImageN, reinforced security, and a rebuilt 
administration interface with refreshed documentation. It is released 
together with GeoTools and GeoWebCache, making this a full ecosystem 
milestone, and for most deployments the upgrade from 2.28.x is 
straightforward with no changes to the data directory.

You can download GeoServer 3.0.0 directly from 
https://geoserver.org/release/stable/.

None of this foundational work is the kind that wins a feature vote, yet 
all of it keeps GeoServer current and dependable for the years ahead.
That a community came together to fund it, and saw it through to 
delivery, is a meaningful example of how open source can sustain itself 
when its users choose to invest in it.

For the full story, from campaign to release, read our blog post

Thank you again for believing in this work and for being part of it. 
GeoServer 3 is here because you decided it should be.

Regards,
Simone Giannecchini
