Camino 0.9 Release Plans
Mike Pinkerton, Geoff Beier and I met in person to work on Camino all day today. We got a lot of great stuff done, including a release plan for 0.9. We intend to do a beta on April 10th, and put out a release candidate on April 30th. We will try to release very soon after the RC.
We could use more help than usual between now and the release. I will post more about the specifics of what we need soon. Thanks for all of your help so far - we're getting close and 0.9 is going to rock!

Sounds awesome, I can't wait for some of the fixes and features you guys are working on. Oh and nice to see you added the option to change default browsers (CVS checkins)

Well I know Mike seems psyched over the changes made on the trunk since the last release however I found that I can get Camino to crash on a fairly regular basis (taking nightly bits & 0.8-RELEASE). Plus an option really needs to be made to turn off plug-ins all together. Flash really IS annoying (and pointless 99% of the time).
However good luck.

Chris:
Flashblock (Firefox Extension) works just fine with Camino (but you have to install it manually)

Between the three of you working yesterday and smfr's work over the last month, Camino has made huge leaps forward lately. 0.9 is really going to rock!

Awesome guys! :) If you plan to do it in Denmark, I'll bring some sandwitches!

TO Smokey:
Do you mean sandwitches or sandwiches

Not that I am familiar with programming but where I can help you I do.
Thanks for the good work and keep it up.
