The first fix regarded rotations, gaps and alpha values, which used to be expressed using a <ogc:Filter> instead of a normal OGC "expression", or plain value. This broke standard compatibility and made GeoServer unable to interpret the corresponding values, for reference, here is a before/after comparison Before...

GeoSolutions becomes OGC Member

Dear All, just a few words to say that we have eventually decided to become OGC Members in order to put a legal stamp on our long standing committment to interoperable solutions built with our open source products GeoServer, MapStore and GeoNetwork.
