  Jose announced today that a pre-release version of SP3 for Community Server 2007 is now available on communityserver.org.  This service pack includes many bug fixes, performance enhancements (including server-side caching optimizations and an updated, 75% smaller version of the TinyMCE editor), and a few new features.  For the full list of what is included, see Jose's original post. Note that this is a pre-release of the service pack--it is suitable for testing in anticipation of the final SP3.  Please try it out and let us know what you think.
