The SeaMonkey project is proud to present SeaMonkey 2.6.1: The new major 
release of the all-in-one Internet suite is available for download now! 
Building on the same Mozilla platform as the newest Firefox release, it 
delivers the latest developments in web technologies such as HTML5, 
hardware acceleration and improved JavaScript speed.

SeaMonkey 2.6.1 is available in 24 languages, for Windows, Mac OS X and 
Linux.

NOTE: This release will only be offered via manual "Check For Updates" 
or our website until sometime shortly after the Christmas Holiday. We 
acknowledge how hectic this time of year is, and do not wish to disturb 
you with updates until you are ready!

Most notably, this release features for the first time:

     Added support for the HTML5 "context menu" feature (contextmenu 
attribute)
     Print Preview is now available in Composer
     About SeaMonkey (about:) shows the update channel now
     Added Type Inference, significantly improving JavaScript performance
     Added support for querying Do Not Track status via JavaScript
     Added support for font-stretch
     Improved support for text-overflow
     Improved standards support for HTML5, MathML, and CSS
     Fixed several stability issues
