Thanks to all of you who have downloaded, supported, donated to, wrote about and continue to use ThunderBrowse, you are all winners!

But one of the biggest things that has changed is….

That’s right! If you couldn’t tell from that fairly obvious screenshot to the right, ThunderBrowse now has support for Spicebird. You’ll see this in version 3.3! Get ready!

In addition, here all the other things that I can remember that has changed (basically what I worked on today):

• TB2 Tabs with Thunderbird 3 versions now work again. The issue stems to a problem with Mozilla removing the close button widget from the tabs element. This has been fixed.
• Several code stalls have been repaired
• Support for RESET form buttons
• Improvements in form handling (specifically radio buttons and checkboxes)
• Small style changes
• A few fixes in external browser launching (this should fix any problems you had before [as it worked in my tests])
• Fixed favicon issues with TB3Tabs
• Several main window style issues
• Settings window height has been increased so the buttons will still be visible when selecting different tab styles
• Improvement of charset rendering (your mileage may vary here)
• Argentinean Spanish Support (es-AR) by KNTRO
• Spicebird support (it’s missing a few small things [specifically, the toolbar buttons and the bookmark menu placement is off])
• Various loading Iimprovements (Pages load faster now)
• More form event fixes (Specifically the enter key)
• Javascript code loads correctly
• ThunderBrowse uses less memory
• Seriously, way faster page loading
• Better expression checking
• Removed unnecessary object conversions

There may or may not be more changes other than these, my repository history doesn’t go back far enough to check to see if there is anything else.

• 3.2.6.7 has FINALLY been released on AMO.
• I’m uploading 3.2.6.8 to AMO right now. It has support for upto RC1. Also fixes a visual bug in the wizard and a bug where uninitialized objects will halt link loading.
• The tabs build has been updated with the fixes from 3.2.6.8.
• IMPORTANT: The Summer of Funding thanks page will now just be a mention to the group as a whole. The reason for this change is because some people might not want to be mentioned (for various reasons) and it’s really hard to keep track. If you do want to be listed by name and you did donate during the Summer Of Funding, please email me (general[at]thunderbrowse.com).

In other news, we were also mentioned in the PC Magazine review for Thunderbird 3. Awesome!

That’s pretty much about it.

1. We now have a license to Postbox. This will make it easier to keep track of Postbox updates and remain compatibility.
2. Some new donations have come in. If you donated recently, thank you very much. I’m sorry I haven’t had the time to write back to all of you (as I normally do).
3. Tabs build is a bit halted right now. I’m not sure if I want to release it as 3.2.7 because of the number of hacks involved. I’m thinking of getting it reviewed by someone at Mozilla and see what they think.
4. I’ve yet to make the thank you page to the Summer of Funding donors. I’ll get to it. There is a reason behind this.

It kinda sounds like I’m slacking here, but I want to let you know that I’ve been sick for most of the month with the flu. Now I have “Super Flu” (or the Swine Flu). Let me tell you, this flu is a pain in the neck. Literally.

This is why ThunderBrowse hasn’t had any updates for awhile. Sorry. Hope that I get better soon.
