Progress with SeaMonkey Release 2.46

In the Project-Blog Edmund Wong wrote a status report concerning progress for a new SeaMonkey Release. Short résumé: unfortunately Heracles and Sisyphos dodged, so he has to do the job. Although there still are some (known and probably still unknown, for example Bug 1305915 – compile bustage for 2.46) problems he estimates that we will get a new SeaMonkey Release 2.46 in near future.

For impatient users some SeaMonkey 2.46 test builds (unfortunately not for MAC, nobody here who can help with his private builds?) :

And finally we also have SeaMonkey 2.49 Nightly Trunk builds for WINDOWS

Server for AMO Add-Ons Repository down?

Currently no access to AMO add-ons-download? I don’t know the reasons. Maintenance? Problems?

New unofficial localized nightly SeaMonkey builds (Release, Beta, Aurora, Trunk) available for download

Adrian Kalla again contributed lots of unofficial English and localized installers and language packs in various languages. Also  64Bit Windows-Builds are available. Folders show an old date in August 2016, the builds in all folders show dates 2016-09-04 … 2016-09-06. I checked the Build-ID of 64Bit Trunk-Build for Windows: 20160905222145.

A 2.45 Release is planned, so test results with this version are appreciated.

Only for testing, you will use those builds on your own risk. I recommend to create a backup of your user profile before you start testing those builds.

Regressions in latest SeaMonkey 2.48 Trunk Build

With today’s WINDOWS build I observed the Problems described in Bug 1300530 – “Edit As New” opens broken HTML Composition Window with missing contents, possibly add-on-related. and others. It would be great if some of you could help to narrow down the  roots of the problem.

Mac is back (new official Trunk builds)

After a while of waiting we now have new SeaMonkey Trunk  builds for MAC
