Good news everyone! Rails version 3.2.8 has been released.

IMPORTANT

This version contains three important security fixes, please upgrade immediately.

One of security fixes impacts all users and is related to HTML escaping code. The other two fixes impacts people using select_tag’s prompt option and strip_tags helper from ActionPack.

We are also removing all the deprecation warnings that we introduced in 3.2.x. We have decided to stop introducing API deprecations in all point releases going forward. From now on, it’ll only happen in majors/minors.
