This is less of a release and more of a "toss a bunch of code into the air". You're not going to like this release, really. So don't bother compiling it. Don't even bother downloading it. It really just differently buggy than the last release. Certain parts may feel more solid, like the mozilla plugin, but the entire experience will probably just be slower and less featureful. I already know there are problems, don't bother reporting them, since it will simply remind me of how crappy this release is. The only redeeming factor of this release is that it doesn't crash. Ever. Well, except for the bugs. Backtraces and media files welcome. You could even use the handy new pop-up menu in the Mozilla plugin to report a bug, except that I don't have the website backend running yet.
