*If you don't use extensions that use Local Storage or you only use the
official Google Chrome builds, you can probably ignore this.  (Local Storage
was only enabled by default as of last Friday.)*

As of svn rev 
31584<http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome?view=rev&revision=31584>,
local storage files are stored in "Local Storage" not "localStorage" (inside
your profile directory).  The change includes code that moves the directory
from the former name to the latter.  So if you're just using the official
builds (or never running a newer build and then an older build), you needn't
worry.

But, if you're building your own version of Chromium, once you launch a
newer build, it will migrate your data.  Older builds will only look in the
old location for it, so they will no longer have access to the localStorage
data.  And if you change a setting with that older build, the newer build
won't see it since the migration is a one time only thing.

If for some reason this is going to be a major problem for you, you can
always symlink the one directory from the other.

Sorry for any inconveniences this may cause.
