The exact date for a new stable build of Opera 11 to pop up has not been set yet, but Opera 11.61 is planned for release in the first month of 2012. In the meantime, the development team of the browser pushed out a test snapshot for the next stable version.

The set of modifications available in this Opera 11.61 release includes mending of crashes occurring in specific scenarios, such as closing feeds tab while dialog is open or when closing a tab that has the Star menu opened. Also, NFL.com no longer crashes on systems equipped with Ad Muncher.

Some repairs to the mail module have also been operated, permitting updating the mail from version 9.27 without crashing the browser. Additionally, new mails are no longer sorted by date behind old messages.

Note that Opera 11.61 snapshot defaults to installing over the stable version. Check out the full changelog on this page.
