Firstly, development builds come with a very large health warning as
they represent the current state of development which, in all
likelihood, is broken. Please don't confuse them with stable, numbered,
release versions.

Secondly, we have not yet announced the return of development builds for
general use. Michael requested early feedback about the stability of the
software only so we could see how widespread a problem the machine
freezing behaviour was. There will be an announcement when development
builds are available for general use; right now, they should be
considered harmful.

Note what it says in big scary letters before you download test

I think we're in the best position to judge how much work it is and when

 In the interests of preventing this regression occurring a fifth time,
 perhaps 'Jenkins' could be amended to make sure NetSurf can cope with a
 fetch and display of that specific page?  Stopping regressions what
 automated testing is for, right?

A Jenkins job just runs a command. There is currently no infrastructure

Once development builds are linked from the main NetSurf web site again we

I always use oldmap.srf which works fine with NetSurf. However I 
normally use Fresco because it's much easier to save the page as a 
drawfile and delete all the clutter leaving just the grouped map 
sections (ungroup four times, deselect the map and delete the rest). 
Also it prints on the Calligraph.

No, I'm talking about streetmap.co.uk. You can still use the old 
format page layout. I have a form on my local home page like this 
(I've taken out the formatting):

form action=http://www.streetmap.co.uk/oldsearch.srf?;

input type=hidden value=oldmap name=mapp
input type=hidden value=oldsearch name=searchp

  name=typeLandranger
input id=Radio6 type=radio value=LatLong
  name=typeLat/Long

Clearly the search goes to oldsearch.srf but the map comes back as 
oldmap.srf with a few arguments.

Sorry if this is getting off-topic.

I'm grateful to have the latest test versions. I'm not worried about

 * The Continuous Integration (CI) builds are produced for the
   NetSurf Developers.

 * We have chosen to make them publicly available *only* as a courtesy
   to our users.

 * The prominent and clear warning in the big orange box [1] is there
   for a reason, please read what it says. If you disagree its not
   open for discussion, simply do not use the builds!

 * The CI builds are *NOT* in any way, whatsoever, at all (can I make
   this more emphatic?) to be considered a usable release or something
   stable. If a build happens to work and not explode you are fortunate.

 * We are happy to accept reports of issues on these builds as long as
   full and concise information is provided in the report. A patch to
   fix the problem is more than welcome (do discuss it with the
   developers first - we may have already fixed it). 

 * Opinion on what steps we should or ought to take to resolve an
   issue is best kept to yourself, especially if you have not
   understood the above points.

 * If these simple guidelines are ignored or argued over we will have
   to reconsider the open access policy FOR CI BUILDS (before anyone
   misquotes me).
 
In summary:

 These builds are a debugging tool for the NetSurf developers which
 you can choose to use if you wish, as long as you understand they are
 in no way a release. If you find a bug reporting it clearly and
 concisely is fine patches very welcome and opinion is not useful.

In this case:

 A report that the additional resources mentioned in the readme were
 missing (which is now fixed BTW) would have been fine. The exact
 version used and other information would have been nice to have. 

 That was where it should have been left and now I have clarified the
 purpose of these builds I assume that in future the issue will not
 arise again.

  * The Continuous Integration (CI) builds are produced for the
NetSurf Developers.

 big snip

  A report that the additional resources mentioned in the readme were
  missing (which is now fixed BTW) would have been fine. The exact
  version used and other information would have been nice to have.

 In the info window obtained from the iconbar icon, Version just gives 3.0
 (development). Is there a way of checking which version/build you are using
 except noting at the time of downloading?

It's in the name of the zip file, I think.

 Thanks for all your hard work.

Seconded.

With best wishes,

Peter.

There is just the name of the zip file you downloaded to identify it at
the moment.

This is just one reason we aren't yet ready to announce development builds
being available for general testing use; there's currently no good way to
identify them.

We need to come up with a new identification scheme, since Subversion
revision numbers are no longer available.

 I've been running the version in netsurf-2012-10-02_13-35-15/zip for 
 several hours now, and have used pretty much the full range of apps 
 that I usually use, and haven't had a freeze yet. ARMini, RISC OS 5.19 
 (16 May 2012).

That's great, thanks for the feedback.

  CAUTION: SAVE ALL WORK BEFORE RUNNING THESE BUILDS
   We have at least one case of NetSurf freezing a
   RISC OS Iyonix such that it needs to be reset.
 
 We think this problem may gave been fixed by updating the autobuilder to
 use the GCCSDK 4.1.2 v2 release.
 
 Please could people who had the RISC OS 5 freeze problem test the latest
 build from http://ci.netsurf-browser.org/builds/riscos/ ?

I gave 2012-10-02_17-27-57 a good thrashing this evening.  No freeze
occurred.  I'm going to stick with it for now.  I welcome the CI
builds.

Iyonix, RO 5.18, 512 MiB.

This is a good point at which to offer my thanks again to the whole
NetSurf team!

 Tried just a few websites. Looks ok on Demon and Amazon. Amazon site
 appears to work ok. However, streetmap.co.uk produced all the furniture but
 no map. None of the controls appear to do anything. Accepts postcode entry
 but does not produce map.

I've got apparently full functionality from
