Mozilla 1.5RC1 is out. Download Now!
It’s a good release. IMHO big improvement from 1.4. 1.5a wasn’t impressive, but 1.4b was impressive.
So get it now, debug, debug. Lets get some good feedback. I know I’m going to give it a good beating when I get a chance. See how it holds up.
Will we ever get more Camino? It seems as if the project as dying.
This makes me very sad. IMHO it’s the best Mac OS X browser. Safari is second. It’s the power of Gecko, and the beauty of Mac OS X.
The best browser I’ve ever used. Also apparently dying.
I need Palm Sync! Seriously.
Here’s the bug. And a nice long thread on the issue.
I wish it would be working, and whomever gets it working will be my new friend 😉
Palm Sync makes life so nice and easy. Enter someone’s email in my Palm, and it’s in my email addressbook. And vice versa. 1 place to do it all. So simple, and quick.
A great feature I hope to see implemented, and perhaps improved upon when the addressbook gets an overhaul.
The one thing keeping me from using Thunderbird as my default mail client (and allowing Firebird to be my Browser) is the lack of Palm Sync Support.
I wish someone would build it as an extension or something.
As soon as I get it… I’m in. Testing full time, on a database containing thousands of emails.
I wish someone with the know-how to fix it would do so. Getting it going would really be a plus.
I created a new about:buildconfig page. Something to mimic the about:plugins page. I then took my page and filed a bug. Only things I messed with were XHTML and CSS.
It’s mighty neat filing a bug and the code to resolve it. First time for me. Now I need someone to review, and put in CVS. Not to mention love my work and worship me for my silliness.
Why is this page better?
Consistent design – Matches the plugins page
XHTML Compliant – w3c validator certified. It’s good solid code.
Looks nicer – could even provide more info in the future in a much more organized, professional looking way.
So hopefully someone will review it soon. We shall see…
As Asa noted the other night, Mozilla 1.5b is coming real soon…. and now it’s out!
Horray, download now. Enjoy the lizard. New since 1.5a is:
Download and spread the word.
Lovin’ anything browser/html related.
David Hyatt has an interesting post on Browsers. A good read for any developer. A very good read. Interesting notes.
When designing this site, I wanted to be very compatible. Good code, and I am. Works in all browsers I tested.
Ben Goodger discussed the idea of making an XUL based Blog posting window.
I’m currently working on it. Can be seen here. Far from done, but a great way to learn XUL!
Quite impressive what one can do so easily. XUL is pretty cool.
😀
Many are aware that Mozilla 1.4.1 will ship hopefully soon.
Asa was kind enough to email me a “by no means perfect” Bugzilla List of what’s been fixed/changed.
Shows Mozilla progresses quickly.
I have to admit, I’m for Gary Coleman. Check out his agenda. How can you not like the guy?
I’d bet that Arnold (official site) will win. But will end up like Jessie Ventura.
More proof that the dot com’s would have done better on the east coast, where people are a bit more rational.
Mozilla Foundation’s Asa Dotzler is also running. Awesome!
