Why has the gears download been pulled with no explanation or documentation of 
the fact that it's been removed?????  This is very strange behavior on google's 
part.  A lot of us still rely on offline gmail, even though on a mac it means 
we have to use firefox 3.X.  But yesterday firefox went into infinite loops 
when it tried to load gmail with offline enabled -- was this also an 
unannounced change at google's end?? -- so I uninstalled gears and went to 
reinstall it, but it's not there!  Very very frustrating behavior on your part, 
google!
