FireFox Pre-Release 1.0 out

[Claverhouse]

Whilst it's not the final cut, the Preview releases, 1.0, are out for beta testing.

Mozilla Release (http://www.mozillazine.org/).

But the actual official 1.0 preview is out tomorrow, tuesday, so check the page then to see if it's updated.

These are
Asa Dotzler writes "We took one more important change into the builds last night, moving from a blacklist to a whitelist for external protocol handlers, so today's builds are the new candidate 1.0PR builds. If all goes well with these builds, they'll become the official Firefox 1.0 Preview Release builds on Tuesday morning. Please help us test these bits and if you find any major regressions, please file bugs and nominate those as PR blockers with the bug flag "blocking-aviary1.0PR?" so that the Aviary team will see.
...
Note that this is not the final 1.0 Preview Release. That will happen on Tuesday if all goes well with the testing of these candidate builds. We appreciate any and all help testing the candidates and strongly encourage you to report any problems. Only you can prevent buggy releases ;-)"


As ever, Mozilla makes things as clear as mud.

I won't. I'm already running it. Zoooooooom!

I don't want to have to setup extensions again. too much bitch work.

[Utopmk]

None of the old extensions will work with this version anyway.

on the jump from .8 -> .9 the extensions had to be modified so they would display in the extension menu thing... yet another reason I won't be making the jump until the extensions I use are fixed proper

Apart from my dear computer's continual quest for self-improvement, which necessitates frequent upgrades to stop me getting angry at each product's performance, I'm transferring to a new ( 2nd-hand ) HD tomorrow ( believe me, you dunno what suffering is until you've tried to buy a 10 - 20 GB HD in GB; an' I'm not gonna put a 160 - 300 GB in a PII, having avoided masochism blindly throughout life ) so I'm reinstalling everything from scratch. It's the only way.
;P

Although many people hate change anyway: I, elsewhere, pointed out that the mighty Jarte little word-processor, ( for text/rich text files ) had gone to 2.5: and people there either screamed that they loved Word, or were happy with Windows Wordpad, and why should they pay for another thing ? Jarte is free.

( And has the tabbed experience ). :ph34r:
