So is the aurora build officially out now? Do we just update within the nightly build, or is it a separate download?

As mentioned in this thread, you cannot upgrade or downgrade from a nightly, which must be installed separately. To answer your question, aurora builds are out and can be downloaded form this trunk: http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/tinderbox-builds/mozilla-aurora-win32/

Mod please include above link in OP so it is easy to access.

So this build should be updated weekly?

Official updates will be pushed out weekly once you have any of aurora builds installed. I would assume that they will likely compile multiple aurora builds in between each update to add in the changes and fixes from the nightly build for the next update. These "unofficial" builds will probably be uploaded into the trunk for anyone to download, but it would defeat the purpose of utilizing a separate channel from the nightly.

So the aurora build that was posted today is an unofficial build? If so, any idea when the first official aurora build will be out?

No, just pick any of the builds posted today and you are set to receive the weekly updates from now on.

I was just speaking in general that you might notice that more builds will be posted in that download trunk over time and you don't have to download those. Just wait for the update to come automatically once a week.

I was at school , lol , back now , creating new thread right away

updated OP with download links to different branches , created new thread Meet Firefox 6.0

Also i request mods that please dont keep this syntax : Meet Firefox X.X (BLABLABLA) ,but rather just Meet Firefox X.X , coz the thread is relevant for all stages of Firefox X.X and not just one part of it say (beta 10)

TI will be in Firefox 5 ?

no , its not even in trunk lately , and erm , m sorry , that was an accidental benchmark

BTW This thread will be used for ONLY FIREFOX 5.0 DISCUSSION , i.e. the 5.0 auroras > 5.0 betas > 5.0 rcs > 5.0 Final . For Firefox trunk / nightly discussion use Meet Firefox 6.0

On a side note , MODS ,should we continue with this stuff? Can't we now have Meet Firefox Nightly , Meet Firefox Aurora and Meet Firefox Stable ?

    • Final Fantasy VII Remake Part 3 is getting a simultaneous release across PC and all consoles by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Square Enix showed up to the Summer Game Fest presentation today with multiple trailers showing off its next chapter in the Final Fantasy VII Remake saga. The final chapter of this trilogy now has an official name too, with it being dubbed Final Fantasy VII Revelation, following up Final Fantasy VII Remake and Final Fantasy VII Rebirth from recent years. Vincent Valentine, Cid, Cloud, Barret, Tifa, and more showed up in the trailers as they battle against enemies, or 'Weapons,' from the final chapter. "As the world teeters on the brink of annihilation, the final battle against Sephiroth begins," says the trailer description. "A meteor mars the sky, monstrous planetary guardians wreak havoc across the globe, and the fires of war rage. Now, Cloud and his companions must stand against this chaos to not only decide the planet's fate, but bring a legendary conflict to its conclusion." Following the reveal trailer, the show also dropped some gameplay footage that shows off a new way to travel across the open world using the Highwind airship. Players will be able to swap characters on during battles, use tactical mode to synchronize with allies, and summon their entities. Cid Highwind and Vincent Valentine are joining the party this time too. “FINAL FANTASY VII, first released in 1997, has been beloved by fans for many years and has since become a “legend” in its own right," added producer Yoshinori Kitase. "The FINAL FANTASY VII Remake Series that began in 2020 with everyone’s passionate support is finally reaching its climactic finale with FINAL FANTASY VII REVELATION. The story’s final destination represents my emotions spanning thirty years working on this title" One of the biggest revelations of this announcement, however, was the multiplatform release confirmation from the get-go. Square Enix will be releasing Final Fantasy VII Revelation across PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5 in Spring 2027 without any timed exclusivity programs.
    • Hello, Having a simple utility to allow Microsoft's customers to configure the context menu, with a few options like showing the current menu, showing a proposed menu/alternate configurations, loading and saving the settings, and a "reset to default" option would have solved this. Let Microsoft provide a recommended default look-and-feel, maybe a couple alternative configurations, like a basic/simplified version of that, and a more advanced version for that, and that would have been very well-received, I think. Microsoft could even had offered a library of different configurations, similar to what they have done in the past for Windows Media Player skins, Themes, and desktop wallpaper.

    • No Steam release. It's gonna fail on PC. Even an Epic Online engineer said that people go there for the free stuff and then immediately go back to Steam.
    • Nice. Admittedly, his other games never interested me, but this seems pretty cool.
    • It's time to say goodbye to Edge and switch back to Firefox. There's no way to disable the ugly rounded corners that appear everywhere. Not even on the page frame. No one uses screens with rounded corners, you idiots.
