well at least they are updating it frequently to fix stuff in the beta nice to see. however i have been burned by their beta's before so i am waiting for 3.6 full lol.

Whats the harm in trying?? Just download the .zip thingy , when it comes , and when u rnt satisfied , then just delete the zip , done! Ur previous version is still alive without any wounds or something :p

The beta hasn't actually been released yet, these are test builds for what could become the beta.

Agree'd. OP needs to do some research and fix the topic title. This is a nightly build, not an official beta 1build 2 beta.

it's in the nightly folder.. not an official beta

But it will become official ,as this is the RC of the final Beta 1 of firefox 3.6 and , in a day another RC cannot come. Therefore , this is the Beta1 of 3.6 :)

Remember firefox 3.5.0 ?? it was nothing but Firefox 3.5 RC3 :) . Its only MS which has RC and Final with differences... Further if u want to investigate more , then compare the build no. of candidates of previous releases (of last build) with the final release. Like of 3.5.3 and candidate 3.5.3...

Just for sake of another proof , wait for tomorrow's release and then compare 20091019 with firefox 3.6 beta 1 FINAL's build number , most probably (95% sure) the no. will be same.

One more thing , if its a nightly build , then it would call it a prebeta , namoroka and wouldnt have that icon :) {See the attached picture)

o October 19th: Beta 1 builds available

o October 19th-27th: QA testing

that pretty much sums it up for you. in other words, wait until next Wednesday October 28 for the actual release of FF 3.6b1.

One word: DELAY! :angry:

Well I was going to not install Beta 1 build 2 and just installed the Beta 1 that was supposed to be released today. I'm using Beta 1 Build 1 now. Wait....

All this is so confusing. :(

Nothing to get upset about. The code they release on 10/28 will almost certainly be IDENTICAL (including SHA1 hash of the setup file) to the code that's found in Build 2. Occasionally they update a language xml file or something like that. In fact, a lot of the time the different builds are identical on the Windows platform. So really you don't have to wait at all.

you shouldn't need to be confused. just install build 2 of FF3.6b1 on top of build 1, overwriting it, and run FF3.6b1 as usual. build 2 has some bug fixes found in build 1. I've just installed Firefox 3.6b1 build 2 over build 1; no harm done. :D

ok fine then, boogerjones. :rolleyes: i guess mozilla isn't ready to release it today. no matter since i've already installed the latest build of Firefox 3.6 beta 1 on my XP machine and runs okay.

lol i'm constantly checking to see if this damn beta is up....... not kool :D :(

you can blame the folks at Mozilla on that. they're attempting to implement "Aero Peek Preview Per Tab" in FF 3.6 beta but with disastrous results, which is why they've postpone public release of FF 3.6b1 several times.

Read the October 28 Firefox Delivery Meeting Notes here and read about those Aero Peek bugs:

https://wiki.mozilla.org/Firefox/DeliveryMeetings/2009-10-28

sorry, public release of FF3.6b1 is NOT going to happen on the evening of October 28.

i'll just have to wait until Halloween then, maybe FF3.6b1 will publicly be available by that time.

    • Anthropic pulls Fable 5 and Mythos 5 after US export control order by Pradeep Viswanathan In April this year, Anthropic launched the Claude Mythos Preview frontier model with state-of-the-art cyber and coding capabilities for a select set of companies around the world. After preparing appropriate guardrails, early this week, Anthropic launched Claude Fable 5 and Mythos 5, its most capable AI models. Claude Fable 5 is for general users and comes with strict safeguards, while Mythos 5 is designed with fewer safeguards for cybersecurity and biology use cases. Today, Anthropic abruptly suspended access to its Fable 5 and Mythos 5 AI models for all customers after receiving an export control directive from the US government. The company received the directive from the government today at 5:21 p.m. ET, and the received letter did not provide any details regarding the national security concern. Anthropic understands that the government became aware of a method to bypass, or “jailbreak,” Fable 5, which might be the reason behind the directive. The order was issued under national security authorities and requires the company to suspend all access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 by any foreign national, whether they are inside or outside the United States. The restriction also applies to foreign national employees working at Anthropic. As a result, the company has disabled both models for all customers to ensure compliance. Access to previous Anthropic models like Opus and Sonnet is not affected by this government order. The company highlighted that it had developed strong safeguards to reduce the possibility that Fable is misused for tasks related to cybersecurity. In fact, many developers are complaining that the safeguards are going overboard. Additionally, the company worked with the US government, the UK AISI, multiple private third-party organizations, and internal teams to red-team Fable’s safeguards for thousands of hours. Finally, Anthropic noted that no testers have yet been able to find a universal jailbreak on Fable 5. As expected, Anthropic disagrees that a narrow potential jailbreak should lead to the recall of a commercial model used by hundreds of millions of people. It warned that applying this standard across the AI industry could effectively halt new frontier model deployments. Anthropic concluded by mentioning that it is working to restore access to Fable 5 and Mythos 5 as soon as possible and plans to share more details within the next 24 hours.

    • Not sure what country you’re in but in many countries you can absolutely jail the sellers behind businesses… in fact I’d say in most countries you can do that
    • I guess we are done since you refuse to read my comment you replied to or my other comment in another thread you were also a part of here.
