chromium builds

it took me a while to find these links, but i've been downloading the latest builds of chromium and running them. they are rather stable but do have some quirks about them. i wouldn't switch to this as your default browser just yet.

here is the link to the build page:
http://build.chromium.org/buildbot/snapshots/chromium-rel-linux/

i actually scripted a process to read the LATEST file in that directory which contains the version/build number of the latest and then download it.

do note that these builds come sometimes 5 or 6 a day.

Every security policy provides guidance and requirements for ensuring adequate protection of information and data, as well as high-level technical and administrative security requirements for a system in a given environment. Traditionally, providing security for a system focuses on the confidentiality of the information on it. However, protecting the data integrity and system and data availability is just as important. For example, when processing United States intelligence information, there are three attributes that require protection: confidentiality, integrity, and availability.
