Hi everyone,
All the builds and updates for SeaMonkey 2.0.3 have been created
(updates are available on the betatest channel right now, will go to
beta as soon as I have a few reports of the builds not being busted), so
it's time for starting tests on them to ensure we get an update out
there that is worth shipping to all our 2.0.x users.
Please help us testing the Windows installers, Mac disk images and Linux
packages, all available in 22 languages including US English - now
including Japanese!
The packages are available in the linux-i686, mac, and win32
subdirectories of
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/seamonkey/nightly/2.0.3-candidates/build2/
You might notice a linux-x86_64 directory as well there - the 64bit
build is NOT OFFICIAL and NOT ENDORSED. It will be listed as
"contributed build" even if it was technically created by our build
system, and it will be treated in no other way than usual contributed
builds. In other word, it's just an experiment.
Please use the builds for any usage patterns you can think of, possibly
also doing a https://litmus.mozilla.org/run_tests.cgi?test_run_id=7
smoketest run on them. I know that Litmus run isn't perfect, but it's
the best we have right now.
Localizers, please test the builds in your locale, any updates can be
taken with further sign-offs (in the new tool) for 2.0.4 and future updates.
If no problems come up in testing those builds, they will go live as the
official 2.0.3 on Tuesday, February 16, in sync with Firefox updates
that will fix the same set of security issues.
The list of bugs fixed in this update contains 112 public reports thus
far, 23 security issues are currently hidden and only to be disclosed
upon release of our updates. The bug query to find the issues is
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?product=Core&product=Toolkit&product=MailNews+Core&product=SeaMonkey&product=Other+Applications&field0-0-0=keywords&type0-0-0=anywords&value0-0-0=fixed-seamonkey2.0.3&field0-0-1=cf_status_191&type0-0-1=anywords&value0-0-1=.8-fixed&field0-1-0=keywords&type0-1-0=nowords&value0-1-0=fixed-seamonkey2.0.2
Over 30 of those are fixes specific to SeaMonkey, 30 more in the
MailNews code we share with Thunderbird, look for bugs in that list that
are filed against the SeaMonkey or "MailNews Core" products. A number of
those fixes were done due to feedback from 2.0.x, we hope we can make
the further experience of that series even smoother with those.
