The new Addons Manager is worth the hassle of the new version by itself. Extensions and themes are easier to install, easier to uninstall, and easier to configure. More extensions will be available as we go, since it is now much easier to get FF and TB extensions to work with SM. I guess the biggest drawback is the Forms Manager, or lack thereof. I never really used it that much, but for those who do, it is a loss. However, it is good to note that returning a version of it may well be in the works. By and large, I feel this release had to happen, and soon. I don't think waiting any longer was likely to make the transition less bumpy, and now the SeaMonkey project is well poised for its future development.
