Firefox3/M8/ReleaseNotes

Check out the current draft here.

Please add items for the Gran Paradiso - Alpha 8 / Milestone 8 release notes.

Firefox

• Download Resume (for pausing and resuming downloads) has the potential to corrupt downloads when they do come from a non-cacheable source. This will be fixed in the next release. It can also cause for some weird speed readings when resuming. (added, thanks!)

• Support for Web-based protocol handlers [as described in the current WhatWG draft] has been added. It doesn't yet work in [certain situations] (e.g. "send link" from the browser doesn't do the right thing with a web-based mailto: handler). A test handler for webcal: URLs has been included, and [will be up and running soon]. (added, thanks!)
