This is a production-ready release of EPUBCheck, which provides complete support for checking conformance to the EPUB 3.2 family of specifications.

Version 4.2.3 is a maintenance release; it updates HTML schemas to the latest version, upgrades a couple dependencies to remediate security vulnerabilities, and includes various other bug fixes and adjustments (see the detailed list below).

This release was made by the DAISY Consortium, for the W3C. Many thanks to everyone who contributed!

This EPUBCheck version is also available in the Maven Central Repository as org.w3c:epubcheck:4.2.3.

Tip: If you are running EPUBCheck on a 32bit JVM and it crashes and reports a StackOverflowError, try to increase the Java Thread Stack Size!
