"The release of Opera 9 Preview 2 marks the start of a new tradition: The Weekly Builds. Every week until the final version of Opera 9 is ready, we intend to ship a weekly updated version of Opera 9 on this blog. The goal is to further open up our development process to our devoted users and allow you to be more involved at an earlier stage than when we ship the next public beta."

Nightly not tested ?

Ehr ? You said something wrong. I am only using nightlies since 2001, either Mozilla, or fx, or thunderbird.

Here is the useragent of my fx :

Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; PPC Mac OS X Mach-O; en-US; rv:1.9a1) Gecko/20060214 Firefox/1.6a1

Which is clearly a nightly build. I am using homemade nightlies...

Maybe you should go read up on nightlies. One of the first things said about them is that they are barely tested. As long as it compiles, it goes up. There are scripts to run unit testing on these builds, but even if they fail, the nightly is still available.
