We have some sad news for the 0.1% of our users who are still on the PowerPC architecture.

Starting with the Next version of Opera, as of the next snapshot release (due sometime later today), we are discontinuing the PowerPC architecture on Mac and Linux. Opera 10.6x will be the last release with support for this architecture. Read more

New 10.70 snapshot: Synchronizing build numbers (almost)

Wed, 2010-08-18 10:50
It's been a few days since the previous 10.70 snapshot, so we decided it was time to do another one.

If you look at the build numbers, you will notice that Mac and Unix use the same number. We are currently working on synchronizing build numbers across desktop platforms, and this is the first step. Read more

New 10.70 snapshot with more Presto updates

Mon, 2010-08-09 08:09
We have another Presto (Core) update for you. This update should improve performance in some cases, and it fixes a few crashes and freezes, some memory issues, and we have also removed the -o- prefix for CSS3 text-overflow. Widgets should be working again as well. There are some more quite important fixes in there, so take a look at the changelog for more details.

Let us know about any regression you may find compared to the previous 10.70 snapshot.

Opera 10.70 snapshot with more desktop fixes

Wed, 2010-08-04 09:55
Yesterday's "10.70" (not necessarily the final version number) snapshot contained a new batch of Presto fixes and even web standards improvements. Today we're focusing more on the desktop side again.

But before I continue, I just have a quick note regarding the addition of object-fit and object-position from the CSS3 Paged Media Module properties in the previous 10.70 snapshot: These are currently only supported with the -o- prefix, but we recommend that you also add them without the prefix as well if you choose to use them on a page.

Presto update for Opera 10.70

Tue, 2010-08-03 11:30
As you may know, we have released two Release Candidates for Opera 10.61, which is a security and bugfix release. In the meantime, we have also been working a bigger upgrade, which is currently called "10.70", although the final version number is yet to be determined.

This means that we are testing the 10.61 release, and 10.70 in parallel, which may cause some confusion if you look at build numbers. The most recent 10.61 build may have a higher build number than the latest 10.70 build, but that is simply the number assigned to them by the build system. Read more

Second release candidate for 10.61

Mon, 2010-08-02 11:20
Hello everyone!

This is my first and (at least for the foreseeable future) last post on this blog:
For the last nine weeks I have been a summer intern in the Desktop Team and as a long time Opera fan I totally enjoyed it! There are some very cool things happening in the future of Opera and I'm sure that they will make it rock even harder!

If you have wondered what we summer interns did this year: We mostly developed tools for the testers and developers at Opera that should help them to release builds even faster!

Todays RC mostly contains stability fixes. Read more

10.61 release candidate (RC1)

Wed, 2010-07-28 13:14
Many of the Opera desktop team have been away enjoying a well deserved summer holiday. In the mean time the rest of us have been looking at issues affecting 10.60.

We still intend to work towards a post 10.6x release (currently called 10.70). However, whilst you await that here is an initial release candidate for 10.61. It is exactly the same as 10.60 plus the fixes below.
