Yes, we are aware that not all migration issues have been ironed out yet.

JAVA and the possibility to SCALE the whole page (not only text) still not working yet on Web Browser 2.28.
Some FLASH don’t start properly like on old Gecko.

Java must also be made working. I for one depend on it for my netbank. Currently it does not work, and certainly the extensions should be ported over. I am writing this using epiphany-webkit 2.27 on Debian Squeeze. It feels fast and stable, but still somewhat immature when it comes to plugins and the like. However I really look forward to a stable release!

Debian sid / squeeze already has epiphany-webkit 2.27. I have been using it for two-three weeks now. It is quite fast and stable. Kudos! Only waiting for all the extensions to be ported over. Of course, adblock should be there. Something to sync bookmarks, (epilicious has been dysfunctional since the breakdown of ma.gnolia), live-http-headers was cool, also the lookup with intelligent bookmark extension for the context menu, and some other also.

But at the same time, epiphany-webkit is still very young. Java doesn’t seem to work yet, which i.a. means that I cannot access my online banking with it. This certainly must be fixed before 2.28.

Keep on the good work!

The only remaining thing Epiphany needs to be perfect is a reliable and independent bookmark synchronisation tool (epilicious just does not work since delicious and magnolia are down).
