I think the reflow branch is getting pretty close to a state where
it can land on the trunk.  However, it could probably use some more
people testing it on regular Web browsing to make sure that there
aren't major bugs we don't know about that should block landing.

So, in other words, it's at the point where I'd like to ask people
to try out a reflow branch build and file bugs on problems that you
run into that are not present in trunk builds, especially if those
problems should block the branch landing.  The main thing to test is
where Web site layout and user interface layout are still correct.
The point of comparison for what is a regression caused by the
branch should be trunk nightly builds from 2006-10-31 or 2006-11-01
(since the current branch point was between those builds).

Links to nightly builds (Windows only, and probably Windows only
until it lands on the trunk), build instructions, and the current
list of known regressions on the branch are at:
http://wiki.mozilla.org/Gecko:Reflow_Refactoring#Quick_Links
(I plan to continue working on the list of known bugs while this
testing is happening.  However, I don't think any single one of the
known bugs is bad enough to block the branch from landing on the
trunk.)

If you file bugs, please put "[reflow branch]" at the beginning of
the summary of the bug.
