[AG-TECH] shared browser

[Ivan R. Judson]

Hi Benedikt,

This sounds like a 2.1.2/2.2 interop problem (at least the first part).
We've tried to make sure they stay interoperable, but must have missed
something. Can you ask the participant from china to send their log files to
us?

We won't be able to track down what happened without them.

Thanks,

--Ivan
