[FX] bangbang023: 07-01-30 [Trunk/Win32](O2/GAL)

[arrrgh]

There hasn't been any activity on merging the aviary brunk to the trunk because the trunk was on freeze for moz 1.8 a5 release. The planned window for the merge opened today/yesterday with the mozilla release. The idea is to be done with the merging and required regression fixing by the mozilla 1.8a6 freeze, which happens on Wednesday, January 05, 2005 2:59:00 AM

Not sure this is the best place.. but what's the difference between mozila 1.8xx and Firefox, besides it being a multi purpose browser (meaning email and all in one)?? Is it ahead of Firefox behind or basicly the same except more programs rolled into one?

bangbang, its the first time i have used this, i have been looking at this pretty much since it started but always looked a bit complicated for some strange reason. I just downloaded it and see a vast improvement. Will be looking forward to the next builds. By the way, can i unistall FireFox 1 and keep this? but obviously transfer my profile over...

As far as the engine goes, Mozilla 1.8 is ahead of Fx a little bit. Nothing too major, yet.

Yes, you can get rid of the stock Firefox and just use my builds. Thanks for giving them a try.

[saxondale.]

Yer man, just deleted the stock firefox and im using yours now. I must say that i really like it. I will be using your builds from now on. Keep it up man.

[FuzzyWuzzy]

i also deleted the stock to give yours a try, and i must say im keeping it lol

great work :)

[IceDogg]

I might as well I never use stock.. LOL.... only 2 or 3 times testing.

Thanks again for the support. guys. Seeing more mature users really encourages me to wait out this period of no builds until the branches merge and not leave because of a few ignorant fan boys.

That's good to hear. You have a dedicated user base. I know I'm still using your build.

[Marduk]

I'm a huge fanboy but I know when you make your next release it'll be well worth wait.

[fanboynz]

woot! the first big avery merge into trunk

http://tinderbox.mozilla.org/showbuilds.cgi?tree=Firefox

[Veedems Veteran]

I'm going to attempt to have it build while I'm out teaching. If Ih ave a successful build, I will release it. If not, then I have to look at some of the changes to the build process.

[Veedems Veteran]

Ok, it compiled fine but doesn't run, so no release just yet. I will start building daily, though, so as soon as a working build is available, I will release it.

[fanboynz]

It'll probably best to wait a week or so, wait for trunk to calm down, still many bug fixes still left to go in.

[Veedems Veteran]

well guess what seems to work again :)

12/2 build is up and ready for use.

[iShakeel]

bangbang, any comments on stability/usability of this build?

Yup. Using it now.

The build has a few niggles with it - but otherwise its running stable for me.

Runs pretty well. You will have to clear out your program directory (not the profile directory) and then extract this build.

[FuzzyWuzzy]

thx bangbang023 :) iv been waiting for u to start compiling again ;) hey atleast in this trunk build i can download stuff again lol and hey i was able to install an extension without it crashing the browser :o

[IceDogg]

Can it be used like your last builds was.. along side the latest public release of FireFox.. ie 1.0? I ask cause I installed a trunk version once and had to remove it as it made all versions of FireFox not work. Fact I had to remove them all and reinstall them all (except the trunk, of course). But my Profile was ok.

[Veedems Veteran]

No, the trunk makes changes to the profile that 1.0 final and any other aviary installs don't like. Sorry guys.

Which is why you can never backup too often. :) But, I can say that so far, I haven't seen a major show-stopper with this build.

[xxpor]
