There have been quite a few fixes in printing support and some drastic changes to the cached calendar \/ offline support. Your main area of testing should therefore be printing and any kind of cached calendar, for example with a CalDAV server or the Provider for Google Calendar. For those of you using WCAP, support for the cache has been restored in this release too.<\/p>\n<p>Of course I&#8217;m eager to hear about problems in any other area, so give it a try and either comment here or file a bug!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lightning 1.9b2 is now available on addons.mozilla.org.
