        !            41:     <p>Why was this released as "Beta"?  The code is quite stable and it
        !            42:     didn't deserve a "Beta" qualification.  However, there are some things
        !            43:     left to do for the real 3.0 version.  These things will not affect the
        !            44:     API to work with HTMLArea, in other words, you can install the Beta
        !            45:     right now and then install the final release without modifying your
        !            46:     code.  That's if you don't modify HTMLArea itself.  ;-)</p>

        !            51: 
        !            52:       <li>We should use a single popup interface.  Currently there are two:
        !            53:       dialog.js and popupwin.js; dialog.js emulates modal dialogs, which
        !            54:       sucks when you want to open "select-color" from another popup and not
        !            55:       from the editor itself.  Very buggy in IE.  We should probably use only
        !            56:       modeless dialogs (that is, popupwin.js).</li>

        !            61: 
        !            62:       <li>People who sent translations are invited to re-iterate through
        !            63:         their work and make it up-to-date with lang/en.js which is the main
        !            64:         lang file for HTMLArea-3.0.  Some things have changed but not all
        !            65:         translations are updated.</li>
