40 - Ship a different microb.desktop file with the Fremantle location of the
41 stock web browser icon.
42 - Add a postinst that attempts to kill open MicroB browser processes, to
43 avoid having to restart for browser-switchboard to start handling

62 ("logging") to control where debug output goes; thanks Faheem Pervez for
64 - close stdin/stdout/stderr in child processes before the exec(), to make
65 debug output on stdout less noisy
66 - fix some abuses of the D-Bus API in launcher.c:launch_tear()
67 - make sure a running browserd is detected correctly on all devices so that
68 we don't try to launch another one; thanks Faheem Pervez for reporting
69 - ensure that only one browser-switchboard is active at any time
70 - update build system; we now have "diablo" and "fremantle" targets that
71 build binaries for the selected OS release
72 - link binaries with -Wl,--as-needed to eliminate unnecessary dependencies
74 - Build with Thumb by default and provide a "nothumb" build option to turn
75 it off, instead of building with Thumb only when requested; the
76 autobuilders aren't requesting Thumb, but we want it by default.
77 - Update debian/rules for the new upstream build system.

178 pass additional optimization flags
179 - replace calls to `pkg-config dbus-1` in config-ui/Makefile with calls to

243 - if no config file is found and Tear isn't installed, launch MicroB;

249 to make sure that users don't try to install over it. browser-proxy

271 - Add support for launching an arbitrary browser using the

273 - Run maemo-invoker directly instead of /usr/bin/browser to avoid a loop

275 - Add a new, private D-Bus method for a /usr/bin/browser wrapper to use.
277 - Ship a /usr/bin/browser wrapper script which ensures that launching
