All,
Just dropping a note to say Firefox 9.0.1 and Thunderbird 9.0 look pretty good. Version jumps always scare the heck out of me with what may have been mucked up trying to 'improve' things. So far, responsiveness seems improved and interface stayed the same from an appearance standpoint from what I can tell.
Note: That IS the definition of 'improvement.' :)
Merry Christmas or whatever you celebrate!
Thanks and I wish the same to you. Regarding the topic, I really do not like and don't understand either why it is necessary to increase major version numbers every 2-4 weeks. For changes that earlier deserved a 0.00x version number minor update. And add to this that since firefox 3.0, when they messed up printing they have not been able to fix printing (especiall print to file) issues. During the last more than 3 years and through 3.5 3.6 4.0 5.0 6.0 7.0 8.0 and I suppose 9.0 (I haven't checked yet) versions. I mean things like firefox can not remember printer resolution; It always resets to 300 dpi even in one firefox session. Managing addons is also more difficult with these continous 'upgrades'. Last but not least I dont't want to reinstall every few weeks my browser, I would prefer a stable thing that I can rely on. Please do not take this as a personal offense, I am just not satisfied with firefox lately, and your post was a good occasion to write about it.
