I've seen several sort of oblique mentions here of the lack of

stick with SM.
Kind of sad since I've been with it since Netscape back in, about, 1995.
I don't have any aversion to "an end of an era" but it would be nice
to get some definitive info on what the few remaining SM devs are doing
or have in mind.
Thoughts?
I've been dedicating most of my time working on getting builds on Win32
running. I know it isn't much and there are a lot of other stuff I was
hoping to do (particularly Sync).
I do apologize for the lack of updates; but, as it is, we're really
down in the resource department (particularly time and people).
I am, as I've posted, getting trunk and (hopefully) aurora nightlies
done consistently. Then I'm doing the l10n repacks (nightly).
Once that can be consistently done, I'm going to do the release
when I have the necessary information.
I realize it's not the kind of update you're looking for, but those
are the steps that I need to do in order to get updates to release.
Thank you for everyone's patience.
Edmund
Edmund,
Thank you for all your hard work updating SeaMonkey. All your hard work
(and all the other devs) is very much appreciated. I am willing to wait
for SeaMonkey to be updated. Many thanks for all the hard work.
Maybe the time has come to reconsider how often SeaMonkey needs to be
updated. Does SeaMonkey benefit, in the long run, with such a rapid
update schedule? If SeaMonkey adopted a less frequent update schedule
would the net benefits be greater than if SeaMonkey continued with the
current rapid update schedule?
I agree with Paul there does not need to be a rapid update to SeaMonkey.
The say that a lot of the updates are security updates, come on security
should come with the user using common sense. I have been using
computers since before the internet back when I built my first one
myself in 1980, it was a HeathKit. I have on anti-virus running on my PC
and I have never had a virus or been hacked.
We have to remember that the developer at SeaMonkey have a real life
also. My two cents worth, OK only worth a penny. Thank you for your hard
work, it is very much appreciated.
Danny,
