Hi,

  Mathew McBride has wrapped up Jazilla Milestone 3
Beta and writes:

  Milestone 3 won't turn out to be the 'massive
rewrite' I intended it to be, but a lot of code has
been rewritted, rejigged or
re-'what-ever-you-can-put-here''ed.

  This release only really changes CSS support, and
doesn't really mirror the massive difference between
Milestone 2 Alpha and Milestone 2 Beta we saw a few
months back. I want Milestone 3 to be more of an
embedders stable release. The real 'massive rewrite'
will happen during Milestone 4 and beyond. Jazilla
will probably be into 0.x and 1.x releases next year.

  Changes from M3 Alpha:
  
  * More support for CSS font- rules
  * Beginnings of CSS Positioning support 


  On a different note Mathew calls for volunteers and
writes:

  My time is getting a lot more restrictive, so I want
to balance out my Jazilla work. Anyone who is any of:

  * Swing geek, and has made some 133+ layout system
of their own (geek speak intended)

  * Knows the concept of COM really well. I wish XPCOM
were implemented in Jazilla

  * Has a clue about how to implement XUL observers. I
don't :(

  * Can make Jazilla more like Mozilla in terms of
code
