14 DAY TRIAL // Google has updated the Chrome dev channel, incrementing the build number to 21.0.1163.0. The new release is available for all supported platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, and Chrome Frame).
Common to all the platforms is the update to version 3.11.8 of the JavaScript engine, V8. Apart from sporting performance and stability improvements, the new V8 also repairs missing write barrier in store field stub and the receiver for setters inherited from proxies.
The most significant modifications are for Windows version of Google Chrome, which adds support for “pointer” and “hover” CSS media queries. This is an important step since web sites can optimize the user interface for touch screens, which are bound to become quite popular in the near future.
