This is a recommended update for all users, regardless of PHP environment, which aims to resolve Date related issues that have arise since Symphony 2.2.2. This release rolls back functionality for PHP5.2 users that was introduced in Symphony 2.2.2 that allowed Symphony to better support European date formats. PHP 5.3 is recommended for all European date formats. In addition, this release makes the first time unit tests have been used in a Symphony release, which were used to ensure that the core Date filtering returned the correct results for all supported filters.
Some low risk security vulnerabilities reported by Mavituna Security have also been resolved in this release.
- #838 - Fixed bug when grouping Checkboxes

earlier thanon the Date field fails in some environments. Now passes all 118 tests. - #736 - The
Content-Lengthheader is no longer set by Symphony. This resolves reported issues of a '5 second' delay before rendering a Frontend page.
Maybe you could just add a sentense that PHP 5.3 is recommended for all European date formats. Just to point out that everything works just fine on that version.
