selenium-rc's Issues

Upgrade to Selenium 2.0 beta2

http://seleniumhq.wordpress.com/2011/02/15/selenium-2-0b2-released/

Snow Leopard / selenium_server-1.0.3

Hi,

the selenium_server-1.0.1 you provide has some compatibility issues with Snow Leopard (and specifically sqlite3). Any chance you are planning to upgrade the server version? The current release is 1.0.3 which works perfectly for me :)
