Here are the draft notes for 2.0.9.

1) I'm not sure what we want to say about the main cause of the release, but I feel we need to say something, otherwise people will want to skip the release, since it's <1wk after 2.0.8 and those other three fixes don't sound terribly compelling.  However, the current text for that note probably isn't sufficient, either.  "Build-related issues that led to the re-appearance of many fixed crashes"?

2) I've updated the Known Issues with a note about 1P, per bug 629188.  I gave it its own section and sub-bullet to parallel the problematic plug-ins section.

3) I updated the F4M KI per the note I had left on the wiki (for the non-hanging version)

4) I also added a KI for PDF Browser Plugin (bug 665385), since that's consistently been a 2.0.x topcrash.

5) You can use http://wiki.caminobrowser.org/index.php?title=Releases%3A2.0.9%3ANotes&action=historysubmit&diff=11897&oldid=11893 as a guide to see the changes (particularly to the existing Known Issues), but someone please double-check the actual RTF to make sure there aren't things I've missed there :-P

The RTF looks OK, but I agree the 'Resolved build-related issues in Camino 2.0.8' needs a few more words

> "Build-related issues that led to the re-appearance of many fixed crashes

Sounds good to me.

I think we can be less verbose about the exact cause of the Netflix crash, and just say "Fixes a crash when viewing fullscreen Netflix movies"

For the last one maybe "Camino will no longer hang when another application asks Camino to open a URL with a protocol it does not handle"?

sr=smorgan with those changes

Oh, and s/this bug/these bugs/ in the F4M section.
