NetSurf 3.10 features many fixes, better performance and improved functionality.
In particular, handling of authentication, certificates and fetch errors have
been updated and unified. The GTK front end has had a major overhaul too. We
recommend all users upgrade to NetSurf 3.10.

A new feature is the page info display which may look familiar to users of
mainstream browsers!
