YUI 2.3.0 released!

Finally I can announce the 2.3.0 release of the Yahoo! User Interface Library. Internally we had a chance to play with some of the library news already and there is a lot of cool stuff to see:

• An experimental image loader utility that is much like my http overhead delay on steroids
• A rich text editor for those who don’t like markdown markup or textile
• A colour picker
• A loader utility to embed the YUI on the fly from a hosted environment
• A testing framework to automatically test your apps.

It is also cool to see that a lot of minor bugs and improvements found and reported by the team in the UK have been implemented by the YUI folks. Most of these are way under the hood, like a long overdue insertAfter method and next and previous sibling methods that don’t report linebreaks.
