I need your help to make camino even better

| 3 Comments | 1 TrackBack

Recently the mozilla developers added functionality to help them find memory leaks . Most testing from those developers will be done on Linux and windows; a few will do it on MacOS but using Firefox or SeaMonkey.
Camino is not completely built like Ff and works differently (internally) meaning that we might find some leaks not found by developers. With your help, I intend to make sure these leaks are brought to the attention of the relevant developers ?.

The work you will need to do is quite easy : you will need to launch a trunk version of camino in a special way, and surf like you use to. After some time I will collect files generated by Camino, analyse them and maybe ask you some questions, and then I will file the bugs so that the problems get corrected.

For now, all you need to do is contact me privately so I can start that process.

This blog comment[1] sounds like at least some people are experiencing what could be a leak. I've never seen anything like that, but I know my browsing habits are fairly non-typical....

Oh, and the text/background colors on your preview page really clash... :-(

Sounds easy enough. Didn't see your email address anywhere here. Email me.

FWIW, I'm happy to test for memory leaks. Email me or find me on #camino.
