They have never once claimed that any release dates were set in stone. For every milestone, they make it very clear that it will be out when it is ready and not sooner.

Exactly! Before they gave a month in which they thought the new build would be completed and they missed that mark most of the time. Now they are claiming days on which it may be done when they couldn't even estimate which month it would be done. This is the reason I don't believe their projected release dates. So what is your point?

I'm just wondering why it seems like you're complaining. It's not like you can't download a nightly.

according to this, windows is getting a variant of the pinstripe theme as the new default theme. i love qute and all but i can't wait to see it. i don't think it'll look exactly like that mac os x version though. @_@

Not sure what I think of this :/

Firefox 0.9 is gonna rock! Check out all these goodies! :D :woot: :yes:

*Edit: Bangbang, that bug that I mentioned went away by itself... Just wanted to say, your Aviary builds are awesome. Really appreciate them.

That would be kick ass--even better if it split the download into parts like standalone download managers do. :woot:

I think it already does that. I was downloading FlashGet 1.60 yesterday and it was slow as hell (5kb/s) so I clicked on some mirrors and the speed bumped up to 340kb/s, but the download did not restart. So I guess it can already download from multiple sources.

Maybe it just switched mirrors? I'm not sure exactly of the inner workings of the M, but I'm almost sure it only and can only use one source. I can't be 100% sure on that though.

Maybe.... could be, but it didn't restart the download, it was already halfway.

I found it surprising, but it could indeed just switch mirror, though normally it should restart the download then, but like I said, it didn't :s

Where is everyone getting their builds from? Ive tried the latest-9.0 tree and for some reason it doesnt want to accept any of the themes that I load. It says they are installing, then doesnt display them.

check this thread. The themes are broken and need to be updated:
