What's wrong with the current UI widgets? :-S

Is there a change log for 1.0.5? The Burning Edge hasn't updated since June 7th, and I don't know where else to look for change information.

I summarized it AFAICT here:

and further down, I posted the open blockers from Bugzilla.

i like that you've split it off into a qa blog to keep press etc from being confused when they read your blog for QA info

good work

also, the secunia advisory doesn't work for me,
Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8b2) Gecko/20050621 Firefox/1.0+

i see the dialog and google doesn't load till it goes away, so i don't think (and i dont think someone else would either) that it was from google

I suspect JST's checkin yesterday at 0913 will fix the JavaScript dialog spoofing vulnerability reported yesterday by Secunia.

The cursor keys aren't working with the 1.05 aviary from 6-21-05. And it made all my bookmarks disappear! Where the heck are my boomarks?

Just kidding about the bookmarks. The cursor keys don't work at all, though.

I have been using the 1.0.5 test build for a couple of days now. Seemless transition for me (Windows XP) all of my extensions and themes worked first the time.

Modern Pinball 1.0.5
SphereGnome 1.0.9.4
AbstractPC 0.9.7.7

Everything worked just fine in 1.0.5

Seems to have trouble downloading files now such as Nvidia drivers from their website.

Unusable with OSX 10.3.9, as of the 6/20 version of 1.0.5 linked above.
No text wrap, impossible page layout problems. Bailed out immediately.
Is there a newer release of 1.0.5 for testing yet for OSX?

Posted by: Hank Roberts on June 28, 2005 02:54 AM

I see this available now:
[ ] firefox-1.0.5.en-US.mac.dmg 30-Jun-2005 09:51 8.7M

I can't find any discussion -- is the Seekrit OSX Test Cabal working on this and doesn't want to be bothered by mere users?

Or is there anything I can help with testing?
