If this release is Mac only, why the post is divided into "All" and "Mac"???

Looks like bookmarklets can finally be dragged into the bookmark bar! Sweet!

likely cause there were not enough changes for ALL to compile a update for windows and linux

you dont make a new version cause of 2 bug fixes, if they are not critical.

every OS has there own installer which has to be compiled for every update.

Philipp said...

but there is only one source code.

so they work on the code fix some windows things and some mac things, and decide later to compile that code only into the macinstaller cause of not enough ALL fixes for an own version.

hope its clear.

Any idea when we might get the ability to control font selection/size in the preferences UI on the Mac?

Thanks! The Mac builds can't evolve soon enough to catch up with Windows. ;)

Thanks for the new Mac release, but when are we going to get a Bookmark manager & Bookmark sync? Access and control over bookmarks in Chrome prevents me from flushing Safari.

Tony said...

When will Google add "Off-Line Mode" to Chrome?

@philippe: there are a lot of improvements in windows and linux too, is not true that the dev version was not released because of not many bugs/feature. note that last week the dev release was not pushed out. there was a dev blocker since this morning, so the relase was not pushed out, but now that is solved the linux-windows release will land today or tomorrow in the worst case. with a lot of news!

A lot of improvements to come up: as example the pdf issue will be solved and there will be the new extensions page...

can't wait!!
