A fun side effect of OSS development is the people who throw in help you didn’t even ask for. I just put out a new IE View build – no new features, I just finally got around to adding in some localization.

How cool is that?
IEView 0.86 released
IE View 0.86 has been released – no functional changes this time, but it now includes translations into French, German, Italian, Polish, Russian, Spanish and Traditional Chinese. Should hit update.mozilla.org soon, but in the meantime the latest is always available from ieview.roub.net.
