Today Mozilla has released three major updates (postponed from December 14th):

Firefox 1.5.0.9, likely to be the last release on the 1.5 builds. Remember, all support for the 1.5 builds will end on April 24, 2007.
Firefox 2.0.0.1, 183 bug fixes includ…

That makes sense.

–Cheers!

Has anyone come up with the portable version of FF 2.0.0.1 yet?

I will probably post a portable version in the forum a little later tonight but when it comes to these official releases I want to keep the portable versions a little bit “behind-the-scenes” because John Haller of PortableApps.com said that I need to be careful of trademark infringement. He said that he has permission to redistribute Firefox as a portable build but I don’t…so watch the forum a little later because I won’t be making an anouncement on here unless PortableApps.com “officially” releases their version.

Sorry about that…looks like our spam filter ate your first comment, but if you register then you’ll see a red warning box when the spam filter has eaten one of your comments (I still have some kinks to work out so that you’re notified immediately after posting though).

Gran Paradiso 3 Alpha 2 is not expected until late January the last I was informed but they are just preparing for the transition. For example, Thunderbird was labeled as Beta1pre for months before it was released…so it doesn’t signify anything.

I guess I should go register…anyway….

I just did my update check for the nightly “Minefield” build release and it now reports in as version 3.0a2pre. (build version is 2006121904).

I tracked down the download page here and confirmed they are listing it: [ftp.mozilla.org]

Does this mean a Gran Paradiso 3.0 Alpha 2 release is around the corner?

Big release day from Mozilla indeed.

I guess this counts as a “stocking-stuffer”?

–Cheers!
