We are happy to announce the 0.2 release of Google Gears! You can download it here<http://code.google.com/p/google-gears/downloads/list>. The new features are listed below.

This is a developer release. Before we update end-user machines, we want to get API feedback from you, the developer community.

Please try out the new APIs and let us know if anything is confusing, hard-to-use, or broken. Now is the time to speak up -- after we release to end users, it becomes much harder to modify the APIs.

We look forward to your feedback!

-- The Google Gears Team

Highlights of the 0.2 release: * Cross-origin API support (design doc<http://code.google.com/p/google-gears/wiki/CrossOriginAPI> ) * WorkerPool improvements: - Automatically report errors in workers - createWorkerFromUrl() * New Gears modules: - HttpRequest (details<http://code.google.com/apis/gears/api_httprequest.html> ) - Timer (details <http://code.google.com/apis/gears/api_timer.html>) Both of these can be used in workers.
