Summary: M10 Release Notes scratchpad → M11 Release Notes scratchpad
Oops... We don't need M10 Release Notes. Please post your ***M11*** Release Note comments and corrections here.
please remember to update the HTML/XML/JS feature table. last time it still read the same as m5 or something. so unless no javascript code has been made since then, it is very old
The following bugs has been fixed and verified. They should not be included in the M11 release note. bug 14591 bug 14797 bug 6744 bug 14845 bug 15186 bug 15216 bug 15254 bug 9537
Under Browser Issues, bug 17430, Back button 'forgets' some visited URL's
Please add these bugs to the M11 release note: bug 10035: Linux randam crash bug 16310: Linux:Regression: Modal on top of modal leaves zombie window. bug 16929:Linux: crash 1/2 the time when drag scroll bar in folder many times bug 17680: Address Book: Duplicate entry in left pane bug 17702: Account Settings dialog left pane is blank bug 17765: POP: Rename folder does not work
bug 17325 : browser is slow loading some pages
bug 17656: frameset documents can be resized smaller but not resized larger
Editor and Mail Compose: keyboard accelerators don't work.
M10 says: "Undo, Redo, Cut, Copy, Paste, Select All, and Find work correctly. Clear and Find Again are not functional." I believe that M11 should say: "The Undo, Redo, Cut, Copy, Paste and Select All menu items do not work within the browser. You can, however, cut, copy and paste within text fields by using the appropriate keyboard shortcut." (bug #14026)
The MacInstaller will NOT work if there is a slash "/" anywhere in its access path. Spaces are ok, but avoid any other 'special characters' for now.
bug 14131 has been alleviated, not fixed, in M11. Popups (color picker, comboboxes) in modal dialogs (preferences) are dead to the mouse on Mac and gtk, but can be navigated using arrow keys and 'return'. (pre-alleviation behaviour was much nastier on gtk.)
From: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=15476 "Certain items selected in the Account Setup dialog do not hold. To workaround this problem, select the item and use the down arrow key to move through the list. An example: when selecting a server type such as News or IMAP in the Account Setup dialog." Please add this to the list of known problems for Mac and Linux platforms only.
From: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18075 "Be sure to fill in the incoming server field when setting up a new account. Otherwise, the product may crash when you finish the Account Setup dialog." Please add this to the list of known problems for all platforms.
From http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18239 "After creating a new profile, when you set up additional IMAP accounts, the folder pane may not show your new account until you exit and restart the application." Please add this to the list of known problems.
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18064 An overall change has been made to the behavior of adding "local mail" folders. This would apply to migrated POP profiles and new profiles. We now only add local mail folders for IMAP; one local mail folders per profile.
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=18384 Browser: If you are crashing on start-up after migrating your profile, try deleting your bookmarks.html file in your users50 directory. Mozilla may have problems reading some 4.x bookmarks files.
http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17932 Browser: Clicking Back or Forward buttons while pages are still loading may cause the browser to quit.
From http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17937: "When you reply to a message and close the window without typing in any content into the message body, the product may crash. As a workaround, if you reply to a message in error, type something into the body of the message before closing the window." Pls add this to the list of known problems section for all platforms for mail.
From: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17680: "The address book list in the left pane of the address book shows up in duplicate. This is a known issue." Please add this to the list of known problems section for all platforms for mail.
From http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17931: "Don't use the address picker to address a message to more than one recipient line. If so, the message will not send. Enter the recipients' names directly into the recipient line." Pls add this to the list of known problems for all platforms on mail.
