Also note that files are only on IBM's testcase for 2-3 days, so if you
want to try these get them now. Make certain you back up any files
replaced and don't try these on a production system. Read any readme file
before applying any changes. If your system is working well, and you have
no problems addressed by these updates, do yourself a favour and don't
mess with this. You have been warned.]

I'm updating 1.7b today because the issues have been so major.
[Moderator note: The Warpzilla site < http://www.mozilla.org/ports/os2/ >
hasn't been updated yet but the mozilla-os2-1.7b.zip file has been updated
with files dated 03/25/2004

Zipped version:
< http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/mozilla/releases/mozilla1.7b/contrib/mozilla-os2-1.7b.zip >
Please direct questions and comments to
]
Here are the fixed problems:
1. Crash on startup
2. Ability to install over 1.4.2
3. Corruption when incorrect locale is used
4. Unable to create profiles or save files with double byte characters
Obviously if none of these problems concern you, you don't need the
update.
Sorry for the hassle.

Warpstock 2004 -- This is the announcement you have been waiting for. Get
out your calendar and mark it so you can make plans to attend this
educational/2 event. The Warpstock Board of Directors is very excited to
announce that Warpstock 2004, the eighth edition of the annual Warpstock
event, will be held in Denver, Colorado, October 21st thru 24th, 2004.
There are some terrific changes in store for attendees to make Warpstock a
truly educational/2 event. The details have yet to be finalized, but the
Denver Team is proposing to make Warpstock 2004 a four day event. The
extra two days will include some in-depth classes (possibly at extra cost)
on specific subjects with the traditional presentations on these days as
well as on the traditional weekend event. Although we encourage people to
attend all four days, a registration fee structure will allow you to
select how many days you will attend. We also want you to know the Denver
Team has planned 3 Different Evenings for us to get together after hours
and get out of the hotel for a taste of the Rockies.
We will have much more information about the Denver area on the web site
at < http://www.warpstock.org > soon. The web site is being overhauled by
our new web master, Robert Kuropkat. So please bear with us during this
transition period. You can check the web site regularly for updates on
Warpstock 2004.
Denver is known as the Mile High City because of its location on the high
plains at the eastern base of the Rocky Mountains in the Central United
States. It's serviced by Denver International Airport, which is one of the
worlds largest airports and a major airline hub. Besides the Rocky
Mountains, Denver offers such attractions as the Denver Zoo, the Denver
Mint, the Coors Brewery, the Butterfly Pavilion And Insect Center, Buffalo
Bill Museum And Grave, as well as many other cultural, art and
entertainment facilities.
The final hotel contract and arrangements are still pending. When these
are finalized, we will announce specific room costs, reservation
instructions and location information. We just wanted to let people know
the "where" and "when" so they can begin to make plans to attend the
OS/2-eComStation event of the year. Some airlines are currently offering
$160 or less round trip airfares right now, and with oil prices rising,
that may be a real bargain later this year. The dates and location for the
event are set and will not change.
Have you been to Warpstock yet?
