+* The release notes now mention / provide a link to fixed security issues in Firefox in order to support our mantra that you need to install updates to stay secure. We might want to add a dedicated page for SM, though.

 ** {{Bug|671192}} Command "Paste without Formatting" in message window is missing.
 ** {{Bug|672258}} Wrong context menu can be shown if two different windowtypes have the same contextmenu id and xul cache is enabled.
 ** IanN is testing out a workaround suggested by Neil for the context menu issue, the core bug is still there though, but only we seem to be exposing it at the moment.

+Several breakages (AB, opening MailNews search results) have only been fixed after 2.3b1 was tagged. 2.3b2 contained them, and 2.3b3 will be even better.
-* [Kairo] I'm against a respin, that's what a b2 is for and we'll need one anyhow.
-* [IanN] My preference is that the b1 release notice, mentions the known issues.
 Further 2.x scheduling
-* Current release notes are for 2.2. Once we have 2.3 or later, relnotes need to be updated.
 * Please help updating the [[SeaMonkey/Features/2.3|New 2.3 Features]] page as we go.
