This is the first release of the new stable series for LyX.
The 2.3 series has a rich set of new features compared to the previous stable series. An overview of the new features can be found here:
https://wiki.lyx.org/LyX/NewInLyX23
If a file from an earlier version of LyX is opened and saved with any version of 2.3.x, then the original file will automatically be backed up. The backup file will be found in the backup directory, if one is set under Tools> Preferences> Paths, or else in the same folder as the original file, if no backup directory is set. The filename of the backup file will be:
ORIGNAME-lyxformat-NUM.lyx~
where NUM is the LyX format number of the original file. In the case of 2.2.x file, this will be 508, but in the case of older files it will be different.
The file RELEASE-NOTES
available in the package or at https://www.lyx.org/trac/browser/lyxgit/lib/RELEASE-NOTES?rev=2.3.0 lists the major changes compared to the previous stable release (LyX 2.2.3).
