8u40 is released / SB

[Benjamin Gudehus]

Hi Tom! As a programmer I use SB for prototyping. I think the problem is,
that designers really need a visual UI and CSS editor.

Upcoming web-standards like Web Components and frameworks like Google
Polymer really shine, when it comes to connection between programmers and
designers.
