0.9.0

- Disable uploading of crash dumps in 0.9.0-rc1
- Don't use "Upload" in directory file dialog UI (#1457)
- Remove '--enable-experimental-web-platform-features' from default cmdline to render pages correctly in OSX in some cases
- Call Node's uncaughtException handler in Node frames
- Fix uncaught exception warnings of SetZoomLevel

- Enable scripts to emulate user gestures

0.9.0-rc1
=========

In this release, Chromium is update to version 32 and Node.js is
updated to v0.11.

There are new features to support working better with contents in iframe:

* Injecting JavaScript in window or iframe: this can be done in
various cases: https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webkit/wiki/Window
- 'inject-js' option in Window.open or manifest
- 'document-start' and 'document-end' event for iframe:
- Window.eval() to execute JavaScript in target window or iframe

* Handler to decide how new window is request from iframe, see
'new-win-policy' event in
https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webkit/wiki/Window

* Overriding 'User-Agent' in iframe:
https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webkit/wiki/Changes-to-dom#nwUserAgent

And this version will bring a better experience for working with
native modules if they support Node v0.11, because the v8 engine in
these 2 project versions are very close. If your favorite module
doesn't support Node v0.11, you can continue to use node-webkit
v0.8.x, which is another branch I'd like to maintain until Node v0.12
is released. See
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/node-webkit/2OJ1cEMPLlA/09BvpTagSA0J
for the branch announcement. New features and bug fixes in 0.9 will be
backported to 0.8 branch on request.

Bug fixes:

#1446 - Clicking the app reload button followed by a call to the cookies api causes a crash
#1330 - Can't close NW after refresh while using Dev Tools on Windows
#1379 - Fatal error in ../../v8/src/mark-compact.cc, line 2751

There are still opening bugs which was planned to be fixed before the
0.9.0 final release. Please try this RC and report issues with notice
on version number.

Thanks & Regards,

Roger

The OSX and win32 binaries were just updated to actually ship the
