Thank you also to everyone who's tried it out, commented in bugs, run tests, and reported issues. We really appreciate your help in making this release as solid as we could make it. There are a bunch of new features we are very excited about:

· New Bespin based editor UI
· Ability for tests to terminate the browser
· Ability to capture errors when the browser hangs
· Better error reporting and logging
· Handling accessing elements in content XUL
· Ability to handle non-ASCII characters in test scripts
· waitForEval replaced with general waitFor function to make tests easier to read
· Command line and robustness fixes for restart tests

· You can see the fixed bugs here: http://tinyurl.com/2dnbcct

· That said, making anything worth making involves some hard decisions. There are several fixes that did not make it into 1.5 and we wished they had. We'll be collecting those for the next dot release, 1.5.1. To nominate a bug for that release add the [mozmill-1.5.1?] whiteboard entry in bugzilla.
