I'm considering getting a newer version of the SM engine for our app
(we're using 1.5 RC4a, so it's pretty old). I normally would go with
the latest one provided in the ftp site:
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/js/js-1.5-rc5a.tar.gz (from
29-May-2003), but I see there's also one provided with the source code
for the latest mozilla milestone (1.6b - from December 9, 2003).
The Mozilla milestone is advertised as "the most stable of our builds"
and is closer to the bleeding edge (nightly). We want to stay closer
to the edge, but don't want to compromise stability. What's the
difference in stability between the two? Is the one in the ftp site
more stable in any way? Any reason not to get the one from milestone?
Thanks for the attention,

Celso
