Hmm. The windows (school atm) installer doesn't download.

Other nice thing; The server footer shows this:

Not Found

The requested URL /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/0.10/Firefox Setup 1.0PR.exe was not found on this server.
Apache/2.0.49 (Gentoo/Linux) Server at ftp.mozilla.org Port 80

The mozilla people use gentoo :)

The title should be firefox 1.0PR (prerelease), not firefox 0.10. Maybe a mod can edit that.

Not really. It's not a decimal point until you've been told otherwise :-)

In this case it's a major/minor version separator. Just like 127.0.0.1 is shorthand for a 32 bit integer. Ie. firebird-0.10 is major release 0, minor release 10. Just like linux-2.4.27

Btw, you do know that not all countries use 'dot' as a decimal point, right?

Well, it depends. My USER_AGENT says "Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040914 Firefox/0.10"

What's with everyone saying 0.10 is wrong?

What else would you have after zero point nine if not zero point ten? Presuming it's not the actual release, which this isn't.

Not installing this until Shimoda can get tabbrowser Extensions working in this version of firefox. I downloaded the windows version at work and I can't stand the default tab handling. Also the render engine seems to have slowed down since .9.3 not sure whats causing this...

Scientifically, 0.1 != 0.10 because 0.10 has two sig figs so you cannot equate it in that sense.

It is extensive important to know if we talk about version 0.10.0 or 1.0!

Where is the milestone for numbering 1.0?

Is here a mozdev guy?

Heck, I don't even have autocomplete on because I see it all as an annoyance and security issue. Of course, I'm sure that doesn't help you solve your problem very much. It's probably not hard to put all the stuff back in, correct? :wink:

quite hard, since some passwords can only be found in mails on cds somewhere :|

i would not be whining if it was solved in a few minutes :wink:

and regardless of it being no work or a lot of work; is it too much
to ask for updates not messing up config files? since that's what
they are to me.

Thunderbird 0.8 ebuild, where are you?

I like this new RSS-feature in this release... I wanna try it, but i am too lazy to make my own ebuild ;)

BTW: Is it true that gnome 2.8 is going to be released today?

There's a Thunderbird ebuild you might want to try in this bug, although there have been reported some problems with it.
Better save your mails first :wink:

[edit] There's now an ebuild in portage. [/edit]
