Releases:Release Notes 1.5

There are several pages that track "major" changes on the FF2.0 branch. These could be very handy for when we want to create our release notes. What's new in Bon Echo Alpha 3 (for Firefox 2).

Release Notes for Camino 1.1b are at Releases:1.1b:Notes (Release Notes for Camino 1.1a2 are at Releases:1.1a2:Notes and notes for Camino 1.1a1 are at Releases:1.1a1:Notes). These notes are for checkins after the release of Camino 1.1b.

Tabs

• Restoring pages after a crash will now occur properly in all situations.
• Pages that are loaded are now remembered more frequently in case Camino quits unexpectedly.

• Pressing the Esc key in the location bar of a blank page no longer displays “about:blank.”

Web Page Interaction
