Beta 1 Roundup

Welcome back! Again it has been quiet on this blog for too long. But no longer! Beta 1 has been tagged and is about to be released early next week. Beta 1 you say? Well, the original plan was to have only one Beta but as time went by and certain key features were stuck in the review process, the decision was made to have two Betas.

SeaMonkey 2 Beta 1 will use the same rendering engine as Firefox 3.5.1, Gecko 1.9.1.1, including the recent security fixes and overall improvements, and the same MailNews backend as Thunderbird Beta 3 which will be released in parallel.

This is the first post since the Alpha 3 Roundup so the below changes (except Forgotten Fixes) are all relative to that. I didn't include screenshots this time, but of course only to encourage you to download and try SeaMonkey 2.0 Beta 1 yourself when it is released! :-)
