Firefox new "Nightly(sp?)"???
I saw this mentioned in another post.
I am running 0.9.2, is this a different version? What are the "nightlies" versus the updates I get from Firefox's website? |
The nightlies happen in between the official releases. The program gets worked on constantly, and some people like to keep up...
|
I'm one of those people that likes to keep up. Nightlies often break, but they also have the absolute latest features. It also gives you the opportunity to comment on new features as they are added, and perhaps shape them to work in a way that others will appreciate.
So, if you want to try them out, realizing that they could 'kill your dogs', you can get the nightlies here: Index of /pub/mozilla.org/firefox/nightly/latest-0.9 Also, you should keep an eye on these pages, so that you know what was changed and if others are having problems with them: The Burning Edge - Mozilla Firefox nightly build blog Firefox Builds - MozillaZine Forums And yes, you spelled it correctly. It's called a nightly because they build them every day, usually early afternoon EST. |
perfect, thanks guys.

i noticed that the installer for the latest nightly is borked, has some error msg abotu the US language thing, so I just used the win32 zip instead.. just in case you also encounter that prob.

0.9.2 is not a nightly release.
0.9.0 was the major release. 0.9.1 had an updated default theme 0.9.2 fixed a major (shell command) bug. |
