Late Wednesday, the Camino Project released version 2.1.0 of Camino, its free, open source web browser.
The new version, an 18.5 megabyte download, adds the following fixes and changes:

Web content support:
- Camino now uses version 1.9.2 of Mozilla’s Gecko rendering engine, which contains thousands of bug fixes, enhanced support for web standards, and improved JavaScript performance.

- Enhanced location bar autocomplete

- A completely rewritten autocomplete now searches both bookmarks and history and matches against page titles as well as page URLs.

Changes to plug-in support:
- Camino now disables certain insecure or incompatible versions of common plug-ins.

- A new “Internet Plug-Ins” folder in the profile allows for Camino-only plug-ins.

- A new hidden preference allows disabling specific plug-ins.

- Camino no longer includes a Java plug-in; users who need to run Java applets should install Java Plug-In 2 or the Java Embedding Plugin, as appropriate for the version of Mac OS X in use.

Offline mode:
- New “Work Offline” and “Go Online” items in the “Camino” menu allow Camino to enter offline mode and provide a more useful experience when no network connection is available.

Status Bar:
- The status bar can now be hidden by choosing “Hide Status Bar” in “View” menu.

Camino requires Mac OS X 10.4 or later to run.

If you’ve tried the new version of Camino and have any kind of feedback about it, let us know.
