Web Update

Support and Documentation

  1. Please help us test TB 17 beta. It's our long term release for a year so we'd like its quality to be high and therefore we need to test it now with your add-ons, anti-virus and POP. Also TB17 beta fixes the spellcheck bug in TB 16, bug 790475
  2. 687 new support topics (1186 1 week ago ) - Media:5-11november2012-gs-tb.png - Why fewer topics? Probably because we revamped en-US/kb/ask page in bug 751734 and bug 807146 (thanks to Vincent, Wayne, Matt, gozer and sancus for their help with this!)
  3. See this week's Support Appendix for full Get Satisfaction metrics and other support details
