2004-04-22 Trunk builds

  • Fixed: 240835 - No progress indication in download manager.
  • Fixed: 237754 - reintroduce getRegistryEntry, allowing Launchy to work again.

These builds have a new partial Extension Manager. Ben says "I recommend steering clear of as much of this UI/functionality as possible in the next week or three since it's pretty broken right now and really does nothing useful yet. Please don't file any bugs on any of this yet - it's very very far from done."

2004-04-17 Trunk builds

Seamonkey (but not Firefox) now has "File > Upload File..." for FTP upload. There was a Firefox checkin related to this change, but I think there's still no way to upload files to FTP using Firefox.
