[[PageOutline]] = Preparing for 1.8.2 = WebkitGtk+ '''1.8.2''' will be the next release in the stable series. We should merge not overly intrusive patches that improve stability or performance, fix build issues, etc. We branched at r108186. When filing bugs (http://bugs.webkit.org) against stable release, please prefix them with "[GTK] [Stable]" to ensure they are addressed with high priority. Also, running a debug build and including stack traces is highly encouraged. To get the stable branch code, simply check out http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/releases/WebKitGTK/webkit-1.8 Over the next few weeks we'll be merging important fixes into the branch, so be sure to stay up to date.
