Greetings All,
Just a FYI, that we are spinning 2.48… yes. It’s been a long time; but, as much as I would like, Murphy isn’t taking his long deserved holiday.. Really, Murphy… TAKE YOUR HOLIDAY!
Anyway, I expect to have a choppy ride (re: Murphy) so can’t state when 2.48 will be released. (First bump already hit. We had 2 OSX systems running and both decided to go AWOL. They were back. Now one decided to return to going AWOL. So we’re down to 1 OSX builder. (*oh yay*) ;/ )
However, what I do know is the fact that updates aren’t working so when 2.48 is released, the usual “download and install” will have to suffice. This is something I’m sorry about as I had hoped to get 2.48 on the updates train…. but it’s just so darn complicated.
Will keep you guys/gals posted.
:ewong
Thanks for all your continued work and that of the SeaMonkey developers. Taking your time and do the best you can. Sounds like you all are working hard with a lot of bugs to work through.
thanks for all the hard & grinding work, ewong.
there’s at least one win32 candidate build for SM 2.48 that I may try out on my PC later this month.
Thank you for what you are doing. “Not enough are interested in the classical suite” is ok with you people? Why!
I have been using Seamoney non stop since 2011 or 2012. That is exactly what I like about it – because it has everything I need in the one process! I came on to this blog now only because I was wondering why I keep getting an error message for the automatic update.
It would be a terrible, terrible shame if Seamonkey ever stopped. I really cannot understand it that it is a “niche” as you put it earlier in this blog. It is by far the best for *me*. I have tried many other browsers; like many, starting with Internet Explorer, I migrated to Firefox, then to Avante Browser, then to Chrome, I tried Opera, experimented with Thunderbird as an alternative to Outlook Express (later Windows Mail I think it was called)…. and THEN came Seamonkey. Then I stayed put.
I mean it. I cannot understand why Seamonkey isn’t *the* browser for people to have. So if you are spending money, perhaps you should consider spending it on publicizing what you have. Then again, I don’t know what your budget is. But perhaps one could be more “aggressive” on social media, for example? There is *nothing* like your Seamonkey. I don’t get what others “don’t get” here.
Seriously, people need to know about it. In all the years I have been using it – I have written blog posts about it http://viking.cqd.nu/why-does-hardly-anyone-know-about-seamonkey/ (this post is from an archived page, since I have updated my blog considerably). And even *I* am a bit of an “oddball” among my colleagues, most of whom use Chrome.
That to me is your – our – weakness. That still people don’t know what a terrific SUITE Seamonkey is! This, in my opinion, is where something needs to be done.
Nothing will ever replace Seamonkey for its ease and convenience.
Courage ! La communauté francophone de seamonkey attend avec impatience la 2.48 ! 😀

Un bonjour à toute l’équipe !
CVL
Merci beaucoup! (That’s the extent of my french… and yes..I probably screwed up the accents.. 🙂 )
Also from me: a big thank you for the great work on this amazing software!
This is taking way too long but it is understandable considering how complicated the matter is. I just hope that we aren’t missing something crucial in the current release or security is compromised.
many thanks and keep it always up
Merci le conseil seamonkey ! Le descriptif de Technifree a été modifié pour mettre les liens vers la version 2.48 😉

Bravo et bon été à l’équipe. 🙂
Could not agree more with what Chris Briggs says. I’m on Mageia6 Linux and have just one problem. I cannot play certain video’s. I have tried everything I possibly can, but cannot get gnash or OpenH264 working after I re-installed Mga6. I get repeated messages that the browser is outdated. My foot! I am still new in Linux so much of it is caused by me.
I have been using SM on Windows since I had problems with FF12 and Flash Player. There is nothing to beat it. Then you can also lose the update facility. It is easier and quicker to re-install Mageia (Linux!) with an updated Seamonkey. Even if I do it just for Seamonkey.
Great work!! Thank you !!!!
