Mozilla Firefox 0.9 releasedMozilla Firefox 0.9 releasedPosted Jun 15, 2004 17:18 UTC (Tue) by pointwood (guest, #2814)In reply to: Mozilla Firefox 0.9 released by rsidd Parent article: Mozilla Firefox 0.9 released "Tools:Themes doesn't work, period" Theme install *do* actually work, what doesn't work though, is the update.mozilla.org site. They are aware of it and are working on fixing that, so it will hopefully soon be working as it should. If you want the Qute theme installed, you can install it from here: http://quadrone.org/graphics/ It's changed a bit though - the dividing rules are gone for some reason. I don't like that change :(

Mozilla Firefox 0.9 released Posted Jun 16, 2004 2:56 UTC (Wed) by rsidd (subscriber, #2582) [Link] It amazes me how quickly people seem to forget that this is free software.Your point being? The Mozilla folks aren't trying to be some hobbyist system like lynx or OpenBSD. They're trying to compete with Microsoft. I don't see a notice on their page "If you don't like something, you have the source, fix it yourself." (In fact, I don't see that on lynx's or openbsd's pages, either.)
Mozilla Firefox 0.9 released Posted Jun 16, 2004 5:27 UTC (Wed) by darthmdh (guest, #8032) [Link] Extremely poor troll there. I'll ignore the pointless ones ("hobbyist system", "compete with Microsoft") and concentrate solely on this: I don't see a notice on their page "If you don't like something, you have the source, fix it yourself." That's because it's implicit with the definition of Open Source software. Mugs don't come with notices saying "grip handle and lift to mouth, tip slightly to enjoy beverage" because most people realise they were given a brain in order to use it, and do so. Drastic measures were taken with 0.9 to ensure that the entire Firefox release remains completely open source, including the removal of the proprietary Qute theme. I look forward to *stripe improving in due course, just like Qute originally looked pretty darn crappy too.

Mozilla Firefox 0.9 released Posted Jun 24, 2004 9:23 UTC (Thu) by job (subscriber, #670) [Link] Hardly.Don't forget that you are not allowed to compile Mozilla Firefox yourself unless you use your own icon and rename the software. How the distributors do it is a mystery, I bet they have to get special permission from the Mozilla Foundation. If that's Free Software then that definition must be changed.
