Documentation

Support

  2. 3.1 Support Issues i) Remote Images not showing for some folks (currently 6 GS topics-is this a 3.1.3 or 3.1.4 regression?); ii) only a few instances of what look like the Gecko null check at startup,i.e. bug 594699, the primary bug for 3.1.4 iii) vocal minority of users very unhappy with slowness of space fix
  3. See this week's Support Appendix for full Get Satisfaction metrics and other support details -
