Modifications from existing beta 3 relnotes
- Users running older distributions will need to update their certificates in order to submit crash reports (see instructions in bug 407748)
- This is incorrect, the problem is on Ubuntu 7.10, which is a very new distribution. Should mention Ubuntu specifically, since that's the only place I've seen this problem reported.
- MathML
- bug 324857 is mostly fixed, and not worth mentioning. Better to mention bug 363240 and bug 413115
