Hello all,

Since posting the last 0.2 developer release, we got some feedback and have incorporated it into a new 0.2.2 developer release. You can download it here<http://code.google.com/p/google-gears/downloads/list> .

There is a new section on the website for documentation of upcoming<http://code.google.com/apis/gears/upcoming>Gears versions, but the major changes from the last developer release are:

* We moved the
WorkerPool.onerror<http://code.google.com/apis/gears/upcoming/api_workerpool.html#onerror>event from the parent worker to the child workers, so that it is more like the window.onerror event web browsers have today.

* We added a Factory.version property so that you can programatically check which version of Gears is installed. The documentation<http://code.google.com/apis/gears/upcoming/api_factory.html>for this property is currently out of date but we will update it soon.

* We also fixed a couple bugs that were discovered: - Fixed a crash in HttpRequest when setting onreadystatechange to NULL - Fixed the behavior of the HttpRequest APIs after a connection error to follow the W3C spec.

If there are no major problems with this release, we will begin rolling it out to user machines soon. Please give it a try and let us know about any problems you find.

Thanks! We look forward to your feedback,

-- The Gears Team
