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 1.1a1 are at Releases:1.1a1:Notes. These notes are for checkins after the release of Camino 1.1a1
