I remember when it was a "big deal" to break the API and go from Gecko 1.x to 2.0. Now it's every few weeks. With the imminent removal of aurora this won't get any better.

For SeaMonkey and the other comm-central apps it just means that the junk is pushed faster down imho :) The "nothing matters but Firefox" attitude is certainly detrimental to the rest of the community, but that slippery slope was well greased long ago. You and I can probably deal with any fallout but I have seen enough bug reports from people without a backup so I put this in as a general warning. If you want to go back backup before upgrading. In this case, one small suggestion - at first glance, it looks like it's the same data loss warning that has been there forever (I just noticed the version bump, and assumed it was accidental). Perhaps more words to the effect of this post (constant changes in Core break all our $#!+) would help make it clear the warning is constantly relevant? ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
Re: SeaMonkey 2.48 Beta 1 has been released
There are now constant changes in the Gecko engine e.g. for Gecko 51 the disabled hosts list was integrated into the permission manager: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1058438 The storage backend also changes constantly now and if you go back without restoring you see indexDB errors in the log. Did I mention the image permisions change for TB and SM in 52+ yet? :) And every release breaks more and more add-ons because of removals in Gecko and JS deprecation and so on. I needed to junk a profile between 2.49 and 2.51 because I had constant crashes and I didn't find the cause. With the imminent removal of aurora this won't get any better.

SeaMonkey 2.48 Beta 1 has been released
The SeaMonkey project is proud to present SeaMonkey 2.48 Beta 1: https://www.seamonkey-project.org/news If you hit the untrusted connection problem with a wrong https certificate when trying to download it you can get it directly from: https://archive.mozilla.org/pub/seamonkey/releases/2.48b1/ I really should put this into the release notes... This is a Beta version mostly for testing purposes but it should be stable for general use. If you are using Adrians 2.48 or 2.49 imho don't bother. Same if 2.46 works fine for you. Remember its a Beta so backup your profile. But if you test it we would be glad if you report any bugs you find. Please check the release notes for known problems. If you are still on 2.39b1 (is still anyone using it at this point in time?) updates are not yet working. Ewong is trying to fix this. Because of a changed distribution server it would also impact 2.46 to 2.48 updates later if he does not succeed. A regular 2.48 will follow (hopefully) soon. Afterwards we will switch to 2.49 ESR as fast as we can to be on par with Firefox ESR 52. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Wishing to comment on the overall thread, I changed View to "All" to display the 1st message of the thread. Clicking on that message triggered the error report. I chose another group randomly and read messages without problems. Changing back to comp.dsp I was able to read the "offending" message. Do I have an OS, SM, or connection issue?
