On behalf of the team I am pleased to announce that Spring Framework 4.2.3 is now available from repo.spring.io and Maven Central. This third maintenance release in the 4.2 line contains over 60 fixes and improvements.

We strongly recommend an immediate upgrade to 4.2.3 for all 4.x users. This release is the foundation for the upcoming Spring Boot 1.3 GA release coming up very soon.
