Mozilla may release Firefox 4.0 beta 13 before releasing Firefox 4.0 RC. What's your opinion? Do you think it need to do it?
You're living in the past. Mozilla has already stated there will (probably) not be anymore betas and the final release should come out any day now.
I am getting tired of all these updates whether mozilla or any software. Every time I turn on my computer it wants to automatically update everything daily. It is very annoying and ticks me off. If they want to update it fine, but do some testing and make sure it is ready. I don't want to update every little thing or bug every darn day. Not mozilla in particular but everything.
I have heard that Firefox 4.0 beta 13 has been released already.....for more information you can visit the site bellow.... <a href= "http://www.getmoreyoutubeviews.com/2011/04/tube-fool-review-1000-subscribers-per-day" >Tube Fool Review</a>
Hope that it is not automatically upgraded this time round. If there is not much difference in speed then they should not be releasing new versions too often. None of the features expected in FF5 are much useful for a webmaster or even most normal internet users. A new version creates loads of problems with the existing addons which become incompatible and too much updates would lead the addon developers not wanting to maintain it as he would need to waste loads of time in updating his addons for the new versions. Not sure Firefox is doing the right step here. They would be killing their main advantage of addons by updating new versions for the sake of it. Firefox 4 was good but not sure if Firefox 5 is needed so soon in July. Many addon developers have only recently updated their addons and made them compatible to FF4 and they would be really worried about again making them compatible with FF5 so soon. Mozilla needs to halt the pace a bit now. I remember downloading FF3 3 years ago if I remember. Then FF4 was launched this year but an complete series 5 update yet again sounds worrisome.
Sure. They bump up a whole new version level just because they can and no other reason. (Again, the DP braintrust hard at work here.) Extension writers have, at a minimum, six months notice when these version numbers change. Quit making excuses. In addition, add-on updating has been automated in most cases so such devs don't need to do anything. You obviously aren't following all the technical articles that have been out for months as to why Mozilla, and every other browser vendor, is doing this. You also aren't following what all the new technologies coming out that will be included.
