Yesterday we saw the release of Opera 9.0 Beta 1, which is actually the weekly build released on Tuesday April 11th.

Today we get our first post-Beta weekly build in the form of 8372 (Windows). — Linux, Unix, and Mac builds are also available.

Opera Software has released Opera 9.0 Beta 1 for public testing.

For those of you who haven’t been keeping up with Opera 9.0′s progress through the weekly builds, you might want to check out the press release and the changelog. Or skip all of that, download the browser, and see for yourself what has changed.

Opera Software is pushing toward a beta version of Opera 9.0. Yesterday they released a new weekly build that they dubbed “Beta RC“. Changes since the last release? Stability fixes. That’s it.

Yesterday, the Opera Desktop Team released a new mid(-ish) weekly build for the upcoming Opera 9.0. The new build has a very small change log, as the team was trying to get one last build out before the Easter holiday.

We should be seeing the first beta build of Opera 9.0 shortly after Easter.

There were two (well, technically three) new releases of the Opera Web Browser last week.

For those using the 8.5x version, it has been updated to 8.54. This update addresses a vulnerability in Macromedia Adobe Flash as well as a couple of bugs. You can grab 8.54 here.

The other two releases deal with pre-beta Opera 9.0. The Opera Desktop Team released two versions last week. A mid-weekly build came on Wednesday, and the normal weekly build came in on Friday.

Hopefully we’ll be getting a Beta RC this week or next.
