The Release Note

Hi Folks,

There is a bug in Apple Mac OS 10.5.3 that can cause Mozilla based browsers such as Flock and Firefox to experience unkillable hangs after installing Mac OS 10.5.3. Bug details are here: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=436575. We’ve pulled this patch forward from Mozilla’s Firefox 2.0.0.15 patch and released a 1.2.2 to the site.  We’ll update the localized builds on Monday.  Also, since this bug only manifests itself on initial install of the browser, we are not going to release an Automatic Update for this version.

The remaining pieces of the Mozilla’s 2.0.0.15 patch will be released as part of Flock 1.2.3 release in a couple of weeks.  Other fixes scheduled to be included are:

• A fix for the media magic on YouTube videos
• A fix for Digg refreshes
• A Yahoo! Mail sharing bug
• Better apostrophe encoding
• A Magnolia login fix

Flock 1.2.3 will be released to all editions and languages and will be available as an automatic update.

Thx,
Mike
