• The default Fixed Strategy behavior on non-visible layers changed from loading to not loading in r8775. To maintain the behavior in 2.7 (where non-visible layers load data by default), set OpenLayers.Strategy.Fixed.prototype.preload=true; in your application code before loading any layers.

Note for #1951:

• In the past, OpenLayers did not limit the precision of bounds, allowing the limit to float out to the floating point numbers on your platform. In order to improve some calculations, this was changed to round the values of LonLat and Bounds. If you wish to change this behavior, set: OpenLayers.Util.DEFAULT_PRECISION = 0;
