available for OS/2.
There are numerous changes between SeaMonkey 1.1.x and 2.0. The most
important ones are listed on
http://www.seamonkey-project.org/releases/seamonkey2.0/As this release is based on Gecko 1.9.1, this means that on OS/2 we get
both the advantages (e.g. solution to the transparent PNG problem) and
the disadvantages (e.g. no direct printing) of the cairo-based graphics
backend. The disadvantages are worked on, though.
SeaMonkey 2.0 uses a new profile directory layout. If you already have
MOZILLA_HOME set (recommended to separate your profile data from the
application), SeaMonkey 2.0 will be able to import most of your settings
from 1.1.x. Otherwise you need to transfer some settings by hand.
The few OS/2 changes for the FF 3.5.4 release include changes to the
font display (better DBCS support, no double bold characters).
Both FF 3.5.4 and 3.0.15 contain the usual stability and security fixes
done in cross-platform code by the Mozilla developers. The security of
SM 2.0 is at the same level.
The releases are available from <http://www.mozilla.org/ports/os2/>
where the ZIP packages, the README file, the MD5 checksum, and the
relevant Language Pack directories are linked.
