GeoServer 2.11.3 is the first maintenance release of the GeoServer 2.11.x series recommended for production system. This release is made in conjunction with GeoTools 17.3.

New Features and Improvements

• KML has two new options to control polygon placemark placement, to force it within the current view, and to make sure it’s inside polygons regardless of the polygon shape

• The layer preview allows filtering on raster layers such as mosaics and image pyramids (which can apply the filter on the underlying mosaic index)

Bug Fixes

• Improvements on pre-build legend treatment in GetLegendGraphic, now works against a layer default style too, and for workspace specific styles

• GDAL bindings jars restored in the build, making it easier to use the pre-built native support (as opposed to custom built ones, for those remember to remove them)

• Raster rendering fixes: no more empty output when asking for highly oversampled rasters in WMS, make sure new image mosaic tiles are rendered even if outside the original bounds in image mosaic

• GWC related improvemenets, seed links now working when running behind a proxy, and more strict checks for non cacheable requests over the WMS service endpoint (especially useful when using direct integration)

• GeoServer now changes the SLD version number when uploading a SLD 1.1 overwriting a SLD 1.0 file using the REST API (especially useful for QGIS and GeoNode integrations). The UI was not affected by this issue.
