Hi all, we’re happy to announce that RC3 for 2.1.3 is now available for testing.

This release candidate addresses the following bugs:

- Fixed a bug where a custom module could overwrite connection-based variables.
- Fixed a bug with apt\_key, where the use of long keys caused some problems (#5237, #5353, #5357)
- Fixed a bug with Azure modules which may be using the latest rc6 library.
- Backported some docker\_common fixes.

For those who may have noticed, we skipped an official RC2 announcement as we decided to include a few additional fixes after RC2 had been tagged and uploaded, so testers should use this most recent RC3.

How do you get it?
