The current habit is indeed to rush any new version to release, whether or not the necessary supplement (plugins, addons) are available for it. When I installed openSuSE v11.4, Firefox 4 (a release candidate!!!) came with it without any offer of a atable alternative. I do not know what kind of mind would inflict a release candidate when a stable 3.6.16 was available. For what it's worth, I do not like FF4. It is loaded with changes made for the sake of making changes, which seems to be a disease od wpidemic proportions among Linux (at least) developers in general. > > Uri Even-Chen > > Mobile Phone: +972-50-9007559 > > E-mail: u...@speedy.net > > Website: http://www.speedy.net/ > > > > _______________________________________________ > > Linux-il mailing list > > Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il > > http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il -- Stan Goodman Qiryat Tiv'on Israel _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
