Dear All,

I am pleased to announce, on behalf of the world-wide community, the 
release of Sakai CLE 2.9.3 . Sakai CLE 2.9.3 builds on the previous Sakai 
2.9.x releases and includes significant improvements including, but not 
limited to, the following:

* AntiSamy - better security infrastructure, added in CLE 2.9.2, turned on 
by default in CLE 2.9.3. AntiSamy helps prevent malicious 
HTML/CSS/Javascript code from causing problems with your system

* WebDav - Improved WebDav-client support and compatibility

* Online Help - continued updates to the online help documentation

* Gradebook API bug fix - affected the Lessons tool, and some Contrib 
tools (like Mneme and JForum) that in some cases prevented students from 
seeing the grades assigned from these tools and does not include these 
grades in the course grade calculation. Bug introduced in CLE 2.9.1 and 
CLE 2.9.2, fixed in CLE 2.9.3 .

* Translations - improved coverage for select languages

* Samigo (Test and Quizzes) - fixed error correction flaw for 
Fill-in-the-blank question types. 

* Lessons tool improvements - including better handling of multimedia 
files; works better with AntiSamy, by default using system-wide AntiSamy 
settings; improved utilization of Sakai Groups capability

Over 100 fixes are included for this release.
