Google heeft vrijdag een nieuwe ontwikkelversie uitgebracht van versie 4.0 van zijn webbrowser Chrome. De update, die versienummer 4.0.302.2 meegekregen heeft, is beschikbaar voor Windows, Linux en Mac OS X. Google Chrome is beschikbaar in drie verschillende uitvoeringen, te weten stable, bèta en dev. Development-versies zitten nog in een vroeg stadium van ontwikkeling en zijn dus het minst stabiel. Nieuw in deze release is dat er nu van Googles eigen code gebruik gemaakt wordt, wanneer ftp wordt toegepast. Daarnaast zien we in het changelog ook de nodige bugfixes terug:
