Known Issues

• Opening maps with Oxygen DITA Map Editor using version 23 showed File not found validation errors for topicrefs.

• [DEV-13458] Customers that have set up the Output Generator to have additional libraries (jar files) for custom processing such as Fluid Topics, need to edit the numbering in the conf/client/classpath.conf configuration file to begin with either 200 or 300.
