With the release of Firefox 2.0 beta 2, a new development snapshot of
Clippings is now available for download for those craving the latest
and greatest.  Please see my blog entry for further details and
download links:

It is recommended that only testers, early adopters and advanced users
(the same type of users who would be using a Firefox beta release)
should download and install this development build of Clippings.

What's new:

    * You can now drag and drop into Clippings Manager to create new
clippings. This is useful for creating new clippings from selected
text from apps other than Firefox.
    * Bug fix: [clipman] Infinite recursion if moving or copying a
folder to its subfolder (bug 14647)
    * Bug fix: [clipman] Using Drag 'n Drop to Move an Item Into a
Collapsed Folder Doesn't Work (bug 14650)
    * New folder data lost if cancelling out of New Clipping (bug 14951)

The following compatibility issues with Firefox 2 have been fixed (bug 14715):

    * New/New From Selection command is always disabled in rich edit box
    * "Spell check this field" command in text boxes in New Clipping
dialog has a
      folder icon instead of a check mark (note: the "Spell check this
field" command doesn't appear anymore in dialog text box context
menus, so this is no longer an issue)

In addition, Firefox 2.0 beta 2 doesn't crash when pasting clippings
containing Asian characters. This problem was experienced in beta 1.

Feedback on this development snapshot release is welcome. Thanks for
trying out Clippings.
