After reading the other postings dealing with 2.3.2, I get the distinct
impression that the botched 2.3.2 release was a *panic* "Get it out the
door quick", reaction to the recent security breach event.
Will y'all fix 2.3.2 , and dot the ts and cross the is before
re releasing?

2.3.2 was a "panic" release, because it was an issue actively exploiting
users in the wild, on that release day, and had been for a while :( .

The only issue with SeaMonkey 2.3.2 that was not in Firefox 6.0.1 was
our reported version string. Sadly, that had a few user facing "what,
why, do I have the right version" feelings.

Luckily (or unluckily depending on your POV) there is a new chemspill
because they took the block slightly further than initially intended,
that should be released within 48 hours, that will correct also our
version number.

I will be doing partial (small) updates for both 2.3.1 and 2.3.2 for
that, so hopefully your impact is relatively small.

Thank you for your patience.

Linux versions are borked (both 32bit and 64bit). Both report 2.3.1. But
*worse* is that they reenstate DigiNotar Root CA. Tested both ways:

1. 32bit linux deleted DigiNotar Root CA and then did the update via
Help|Check for Updates. DigiNotar Root CA is now back.
Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:6.0.1) Gecko/20110830
Firefox/6.0.1 SeaMonkey/2.3.1

2. 64bit linux deleted DigiNotar Root CA and then did the update via
Help|Check for Updates. DigiNotar Root CA is now back. So I downloaded
the entire bz2, deleted the old, and extracted to a new folder;
DigiNotar Root CA is now back on that version as well.
Build identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:6.0.1)
Gecko/20110830 Firefox/6.0.1 SeaMonkey/2.3.1

I've not tested any windows versions (yet).

The root CA will still appear in the cert list, but it is blocked, please test with a website.

But its a factor of how this code works.
