Aparently it has been released but the homepage still says 0.8

http://slashdot.org/articles/04/06/15/1151220.shtml

exists but is not on slashdot's main page anywhere.

review here: http://www.madpenguin.org/cms/html/47/1695.html

wonder when it will reach portage, at time of this post no ebuild is in bugzilla.

i'm still not sure if it's an official release or another rc

It's on the Mozilla FTP Server, and looks like this is not another RC. Lets hope the server won't melt when this news hits big.

Tried an early ebuild, but the amd64 patch won't apply, and it borks the build without it :roll: (amd64, gcc3.4)

The ebuild here -> https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=53961

/me Patience, I'm sure it'll turn up soon :wink:

Hopefully that pesky password manager and search bugs will be fixed too :)
