Hey everyone!
Tor's experimental version has moved one step closer to stable with its latest -rc release. I have some packages up for testing. In order to prevent confusion with the 3.x series of TBB (which are actually alpha), the "regular" alpha TBBs have been renamed to beta.
Packages: https://people.torproject.org/~erinn/qa/alpha/0.2.4.15-rc/ sha256sums: https://people.torproject.org/~erinn/qa/alpha/0.2.4.15-rc/sha256sums-0.2.4.1... Turnaround: 24h
I've added a few more tests: noting whether there is a system tray, whether the network map can be viewed, and whether a new ID can be generated without losing the current open tabs. I've added these because I think that they are important, but not available from the 3.x series. I'm torn between the 2.x and 3.x series at the moment - 2.x provides more information and functionality while 3.x is faster.
