Hello everyone,

It's time for another thrilling Camino schedule update :-P

As I wrote yesterday 
(http://www.ardisson.org/afkar/2009/05/17/camino-2009-week-19-20/), 
we decided late last week we needed to add 
another beta to the Camino 2.0 schedule (and 
consequently move the l10n freeze along with it). 
We're very close to having usable crash reporting 
with Breakpad, and we'd like to get that into the 
hands of as many users as possible as soon as 
possible.  We still have a fair amount of work to 
do on safebrowsing and Tabsposé (as well as an 
assortment of other bugs that affect l10n), so it 
makes more sense to ship a new beta soon and move 
feature/l10n freeze to a Beta 4 later in the 
summer when those other features will be 
finished. Our current plan is to ship b3 close to 
the end of this month.

For Camino 1.6.8, we plan to ship with the next 
Gecko 1.8.0.x release in the mid-June timeframe. 
We currently have about 3 Camino bugs targeted 
for 1.6.8 (one of them being an ad-blocking 
update); if enough of you are going to be on 
holiday already (or otherwise busy) in early 
June, I can try to get the release notes 
more-or-less ready so that you can have a version 
of them translated before you go; let me know.

If you have gotten started with Camino 2 
translations with the betas and plan to keep on 
with Beta 3, please note that the Breakpad UI 
("Camino Crash Reporter") is all .strings-based 
and the application dynamically resizes the 
window to fit the localized strings; there's no 
need to change any layout in the .nib itself.

As always, let me know if there are any 
questions, and thanks for all your work.

Smokey
