Обновление Google Chrome Stable и Beta Channel до версии 8.0.552.215

Стабильная версия Google Chrome для всех платформ (Linux, Mac, Windows) обновлена до 8.0.552.215. В дополнение к исправлениям более чем 800 ошибок, последним исправлениям безопасности и улучшению стабильности относительно предыдущей седьмой версии, релиз стабильной восьмой версии Chrome теперь содержит встроенный просмотрщик PDF, изолированный в песочнице Chrome для предотвращения нанесения какого-либо вреда браузеру и операционной системе при его запуске для открытия файлов формата PDF.
До этой же версии 8.0.552.215 обновлен и Google Chrome бета-канала (Linux, Mac, Windows), ранее уже находившийся в восьмой версии с начала ноября.

We would like to offer special thanks -- and a number of rewards -- to Aki Helin of OUSPG for his extensive help with the new PDF feature. We'd also like to extend thanks to Sergey Glazunov and Marc Schoenefeld for finding bugs during the development cycle such that they never reached a stable build.

Full details about the changes are available in the SVN revision log. If you find new issues, please let us know by filing a bug. Want to change to another Chrome release channel? Find out how.
