- is the upgrade from 1.x gone? It was noted as being a conversion feature to be removed from 2.1 and later. I ask only because I didn't see a hint to upgrade to 2.0.14 then 2.1 if the direct path isn't supported.
SM 1.x used a different update system (you were only notified of updates but could not let it automatically download and apply them, not to speak of partial update files) so the upgrade path there is to download 2.1 from the website (or FTP).
The only part that was lost post-2.0 that I know of is the ability to migrate download history. See:

- Having SM call itself Firefox solves problems with broken sites, but it will result in SM vanishing from browser stats, won't it? Meaning sites are less likely to make any effort to support it.
From my experience, sites haven't made any effort to support it anyway. Quite the contrary, sites like Google are now starting to only support the last few versions of the major browsers...
- is 2.1.1pre daily newer or a fork?
2.1.1pre is what the 2.1 branch nightlies were called. Generation of 2.0 and 2.1 nightlies has been stopped, though, since SeaMonkey will join the rapid release train with SM 2.2 (coming some time after Firefox 5, which is scheduled for June 21).
