The open-source Web browser Camino has been bumped to version 2.0.5 in what The Camino Project terms “a stability and security update.” Beyond improvements in both those areas, the update adds compatibility with Google Calendar’s print function, upgrades the bundled Java Embedding Plugin to version 0.9.7.4, and improves ad-blocking. Also fixed is an issue that affected users of Mac OS X’s Spaces feature where plug-ins wouldn’t properly recognize which modifier keys were pressed. Support for Bloglines—which is shuttering—was removed as well. (Free, 15.8 MB)

Does anyone here still use Camino as their main browser? How does it shape up? I used to love it, but somewhere along the line I stopped using it and forgot about it.
I don't use it as my main browser, but I like keeping it around as a test browser that isn't cluttered with add-ons or extensions or other things that change basic functionality.
Camino is outstanding. Appears to allow you to build your deny and allow list. No more of those annoying ads, after I denied them. I'm sidelining Safari and Firefox for made for Mac software. No more google redirects, period.
