Mail panel takes center stage
Hi! In this build, we present to you a new Mail panel with more functionality. And there is more, so read on below.
The Mail Panel
With this new Mail panel, you can decide for yourself what items to show, and in what order. Not using the 'Attachments'? Just hide it. Want your IMAP account on top? Just drag it up. Etc. Furthermore, you can now create folders to organize your mailing list and newsfeeds, which is great for users who have many of them. It is also possible to select in each category (like Attachments, Labels, Feeds, etc) which individual items to show and which items to hide.
Speaking about feeds, you now will get the Mail panel for easy switching between feeds, without having to set up any mail accounts. As long as you don't set up a mail account, the panel will only contain your feeds with a dedicated toolbar and context menu :wizard:
Other changes are the automatic appearance of the Mail panel whenever you switch to a mail tab - and automatically returning to the previous state of the panels when moving back to a not-mail tab. Also, POP accounts have gained Inbox and Sent views for themselves.
This is phase one of the mail panel work. Phase two is now being worked on, and will see a better UI for Filters/Labels/Searches, support for feed folders in OPML import/export, a nicer look especially for Mac, and a better way to deal with multiple mail accounts (which can currently take up a lot of vertical space). So stay tuned, and tell us what you think of phase one!

Known regressions
WARNING: This is a development snapshot: It contains the latest changes, but may also have severe known issues, including crashes and data loss situations. In fact, it may not work at all.

10.62 Release Candidate 2
Here is our second 10.62 Release Candidate. Just a few small tweaks to get 10.62 ready for final. Let us know if you see any regressions since 10.61. For those wondering about 10.70, we will try to get an interesting new build out to you soon.
Note: These packages have the old non-unified build numbers. However, 10.70 and above will continue to have unified build numbers. Also because this is the 10.6x line we still have PowerPC.

Dialogs and text input
New week, and a new snapshot. :hat:
We have fixed the mail panel regression introduced with the previous snapshot, and improved on dialog modality on Mac. Mac users on older system will also find a very pleasant fix for ‘the slow typing issue.’ (Will be available in an upcoming Opera 10.62 update for the PowerPC crowd too.)

The End of an Architecture
We have some sad news for the 0.1% of our users who are still on the PowerPC architecture.
Starting with the Next version of Opera, as of the next snapshot release (due sometime later today), we are discontinuing the PowerPC architecture on Mac and Linux. Opera 10.6x will be the last release with support for this architecture. This is unfortunate, but with third party vendor support dwindling away, we can no longer keep developing Opera for this architecture.
After ending support for PowerPC, we will be able to focus more on our high quality browser to make sure that it meets the need of the modern web browser user on the popular architectures. ...

Bug fixing Wednesday on a unified build number
A nice bunch of fixes coming right up! :)
We are now using the same build number on all platforms. This should make it easier to coordinate your bug reports and comments (hint, hint) as we’ll know for sure you are all talking about the same build.

Content blocker synchronization, and *nix fixes
It has been a while since we added something to Opera Link, but with this "10.70" snapshot, we are introducing synchronization of the content blocker. This makes it easy to build and maintain a list of blocked items anywhere you go.
This snapshot also has a few Linux/FreeBSD fixes.

Known issues
- Existing URLs might not be synchronized: If you already have a list of blocked URLs before enabling synchronization, you might have to add a URL to the block list through the content blocker for synchronization to start working after logging in to Opera Link

New 10.70 snapshot: Synchronizing build numbers (almost)
It's been a few days since the previous 10.70 snapshot, so we decided it was time to do another one.
If you look at the build numbers, you will notice that Mac and Unix use the same number. We are currently working on synchronizing build numbers across desktop platforms, and this is the first step. Windows will hopefully follow in the near future.
Note: There are no Linux PowerPC builds this time.

Hei
We just released 10.61. Changelog can be found: http://www.opera.com/docs/changelogs/windows/1061/
Thanks for your testing effort. We will likely continue with a double set of "snapshots" here on the desktop team.
Continuing with 10.7 (or whatever it will eventually be called) and 10.62
The bugfixing continues ;-) ...

New 10.70 snapshot with more Presto updates
We have another Presto (Core) update for you. This update should improve performance in some cases, and it fixes a few crashes and freezes, some memory issues, and we have also removed the -o- prefix for CSS3 text-overflow. Widgets should be working again as well. There are some more quite important fixes in there, so take a look at the changelog for more details.
Let us know about any regression you may find compared to the previous 10.70 snapshot.
WARNING: This is a development snapshot of Opera. It is released for testing purposes, and there may be serious bugs and unfinished features.

Opera 10.70 snapshot with more desktop fixes
Yesterday's "10.70" (not necessarily the final version number) snapshot contained a new batch of Presto fixes and even web standards improvements. Today we're focusing more on the desktop side again.
But before I continue, I just have a quick note regarding the addition of object-fit and object-position from the CSS3 Paged Media Module properties in the previous 10.70 snapshot: These are currently only supported with the -o- prefix, but we recommend that you also add them without the prefix as well if you choose to use them on a page. It should also be noted that the specification may not yet have been updated to reflect that image-fit and image-postion have been renamed.
Returning to this snapshot, there are quite a few crash fixes, and we have improved the Add Bookmark dialog when you try to add a site that's already in your bookmarks by letting you change the folder, and adding a message letting you know what's going on.
For more information about the fixes in this snapshot, please take a look at the changelog.

Presto update for Opera 10.70
As you may know, we have released two Release Candidates for Opera 10.61, which is a security and bugfix release. In the meantime, we have also been working a bigger upgrade, which is currently called "10.70", although the final version number is yet to be determined.
This means that we are testing the 10.61 release, and 10.70 in parallel, which may cause some confusion if you look at build numbers. The most recent 10.61 build may have a higher build number than the latest 10.70 build, but that is simply the number assigned to them by the build system. Opera "10.70" is still the main development branch, while 10.61 is only intended to be a smaller security/bug fix release.
With that out of the way, let's return to the actual snapshot. This one contains mostly Presto (Core) changes, and there are even a few new features:
There are also a few optimizations for SVG, improvements to the JavaScript debugger, and we have added the option opera:config#VisitedLink|VisitedLinksState to control :visited (0 - disable :visited, 1 - match same domain only, 2 - enable :visited normally).
There are also quite a few other fixes we need to test, but let's start with this batch.

Second release candidate for 10.61
Hello everyone!
This is my first and (at least for the foreseeable future) last post on this blog:
For the last nine weeks I have been a summer intern in the Desktop Team and as a long time Opera fan I totally enjoyed it! There are some very cool things happening in the future of Opera and I'm sure that they will make it rock even harder!
If you have wondered what we summer interns did this year: We mostly developed tools for the testers and developers at Opera that should help them to release builds even faster!
Todays RC mostly contains stability fixes. But we had to revert the fix for the blanking out of the start bar, as it caused some other problems, and it probably won't make it in 10.61 Final. You should also look out for problems with cookies as we fixed a bug in the cookie settings. There are also some improvements for Geolocation on Unix and some fixes for memory issues.
Have a nice remaining summer and to the Opera team: Good Luck!

10.61 release candidate (RC1)
Many of the Opera desktop team have been away enjoying a well deserved summer holiday. In the mean time the rest of us have been looking at issues affecting 10.60.
We still intend to work towards a post 10.6x release (currently called 10.70). However, whilst you await that here is an initial release candidate for 10.61. It is exactly the same as 10.60 plus the fixes below.

Networking fixes
Tired of 10.60 already? You should not be! It is a great release. But if you’re up for it in the summer heat, we have a new build that needs testing. One of the fixes we hope will further improve stability on Mac.
We are very interested in crash logs from this build, so please don’t hold them back. ;)
PS: The version number is now set to “10.70” to differentiate it from the 10.60 final.
PS2: It is definitely summer in Oslo! :cool:

Opera 10.60 goes final
Opera 10.60 has been released today! Opera 10.60 is based on a brand new version of Opera's rendering engine, Presto 2.6.30 and includes support for several new web technologies, such as Geolocation, Web Workers and Offline Applications. In addition Opera 10.60 is the first final browser that has support for the high quality video format WebM.
During the development of Opera 10.60 we also focused on stability, performance and alignment of all platforms. 10.60 has notably improved Javascript and DOM performance, and since 10.54 almost a thousand bugs have been fixed. Unix users can now also enjoy a final version of Opera with the speed of the new Javascript engine Carakan, and other features that have been introduced in 10.50 and 10.60.
We'd like to thank everyone for testing the snapshots, reporting bugs, and giving us other feedback. Stay tuned on this blog for more Presto updates!
