      <div dir="ltr">Dear all,<br>
        I wanted to reach out to you personally on behalf of the entire
        GeoServer 3 team, to share an important update, in case this
        went unnoticed on your side: GeoServer 3.0-RC is now available.<br>
        <br>
        This release candidate is the concrete result of the
        crowdfunding campaign you supported. Your contribution made it
        possible to move GeoServer 3 from a plan into a modernized
        platform, with a new user experience, a Jakarta/Spring-based
        stack, ImageN raster processing, stronger security, and a clean
        upgrade path from 2.28.x. It is released together with GeoTools
        35-RC and GeoWebCache 2.0-RC, making this a full ecosystem
        milestone.<br>
        <br>
        You can download GeoServer 3.0-RC directly from <a
          href="https://geoserver.org/release/3.0-RC/"
          moz-do-not-send="true" class="moz-txt-link-freetext">https://geoserver.org/release/3.0-RC/</a>,
        or try it immediately with Docker:<br>
            docker run -p 8080:8080 <a
          href="http://docker.osgeo.org/geoserver:3.0-RC"
          moz-do-not-send="true">docker.osgeo.org/geoserver:3.0-RC</a><br>
        <br>
        If you have the chance, your real-world testing at this stage
        would be genuinely valuable, especially on upgrade workflows,
        the new UI, and Tomcat 11 / Jetty 12 deployments.
        <div>Feedback can be shared on the specific GeoServer Discourse
          thread. </div>
        <div>For a more detailed overview of the release and the journey
          from campaign to RC, I invite you to read <a

            moz-do-not-send="true">our</a> blog post.<br>
          <br>
          Thank you again for believing in this work and for being part
          of it.<br>
