+
+We’ve released **version 1.8.3** of FixMyStreet.
+
+For developers, the main improvement in this version is the great speed up to
+CSS compilation by moving from sass to libsass.
+
+We've fixed some map issues, getting the Google Maps layer working again and
+dealing with tap sensitivity on some devices.
+
+The admin interface gets a bit of love, adding common search boxes to the index
+page, allowing change of email to an existing address, and speeding up photo
+removal.
+
+### Upgrading notes
+
+If your templates aren't kept in the main repository, there are a couple of
+things to be aware of with this release:
+
+* If you've used the `cf` class, you'll need to rename it to `clearfix`.
+* If you have customised any of the email templates that use `<?=...?>` style
+ variables (e.g. alert emails, questionnaire, submit), you'll need to
+ rewrite them to use the standard `[%...%]` variables.
+
