I'm hoping to land the reflow branch on the trunk in the next few
days. More information about what the reflow branch is is available
at http://wiki.mozilla.org/Gecko:Reflow_Refactoring .

Before it lands, it would be good if people tried out the latest
reflow branch builds and filed bugs on problems that are not present
in trunk builds, especially if those problems should block the
branch landing. The main thing to test is where Web site layout and
user interface layout are still correct. The point of comparison
for what is a regression caused by the branch should be trunk
nightly builds from 2006-10-31 or 2006-11-01 (since the current
branch point was between those builds). Windows nightly builds are
available at
ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/experimental/reflow-refactor/
(There aren't any Mac or Linux nightly builds, and won't be until it
lands.)

If you file bugs that are regressions in these builds relative to
the trunk, please put "[reflow branch]" at the beginning of the
summary of the bug.
