This wont get nearly as much press as a Firefox point release, but Opera 8 has been released. (it's to be officially annouced tomorrow, but you can download it now)

I don't care much if you use it or not (I do care a bit, it's hugely underrated), but you designer types might want to download it for testing. To be honest, everyone should give it a go, though I've learnt from experience not to suggest to a Firefox user that there might be something better - they get all scary-like.

It's just as standards complient as Gecko, arguably moreso, so if you code correctly there shouldn't really be anything to worry about. But as it is a different rendering engine, at least testing in it would be sensible. You really have no excuse.

p.s. opera_browser
