I am one of those that were complaining about not including Moz 0.9.8.
Now, I am definitely pleased with Moz 1.1:-) BTW, I used Mozilla 1.1beta 
from tarballs for some time, and never encountered a problem anyway...

Great work!

Same here. Keep up the excellent job. That's why there are betas/RCs and 
every one can test if all important stuff for him works OK.

Yeah, I just about sent a message earlier saying man,
you can't please everybody, some complain it's not new
enough, some it's too new.

I think what people need to do is give you some credit
and leave the QA issues to you.  Give useful bug
reports (if they're Mandrake specific), or sit back
and enjoy the ride.

I stand behind your judgement 100% Frederic.

Take a chill pill.  It isn't even the same people complaining.  You know

Like I said, final should be out in 3 days

You didn't release with 0.9.8 because you didn't have enough time to 
test it... I don't want the same thing to happen with mozilla 1.1 where 
we end up with mozilla-crap-o-rama-beta-rc because they took too long 
and you don't have time to test the final.

You didn't ship with 0.9.8 becasue it was to close to a release... And 
I'm fine with that. I understand. I'm letting you know that the current 
mozilla (whatever version) is crap, and crashes all the time. And I also 
understand you need time to test the RC or final...

> Did you see any Release Candidate of Mandrake Linux recently ? There won't
> be "final" Mdk 9.0 until at least some RC are out..

My main concern is having a mozilla  - whatever the version is - stable. 
And I'm on this list to test, for myself, and you.

If you were reading mozillazine and mozilla newsgroup, you would know that
release candidate of Mozilla 1.1 are out and 1.1 should ship probably next
monday or tuesday.. 

Guys, you are incredible : for Mdk 8.2, I was bashed because I didn't
include Moz 0.9.8 (and I was right, there was a lot of regressions
compared to Moz 0.9.7 we shipped).. 

And now that we will ship Moz 1.1, we are bashed because it is too recent
 (even if it has passed both alpha and beta stage).. You are never happy and
I'm becoming a little upset by this kind of behaviour..

Did you see any Release Candidate of Mandrake Linux recently ? There won't
be "final" Mdk 9.0 until at least some RC are out..

yes yes... I'm aware of that, but Mozilla.org is not exactly "on time" 
with there releases. Hopefully they have changed, but they have no track 
record of releasing on time. 1.0 was late, but good. I suspect the same 
with 1.1, late but good. The problem is 1.1 isn't ready yet, and the 
"ideal release" date has come and gone. If they are "on time" just like 
like thier other releases (1.1 alpha nad beta) we can expect thier 1.1 
final in 3 days. That's fine., but leavs little time for testing for 
mandrake and us.

It really wouldn't worry me at all except the last Mandrake releases 
have been "final" without any warning and I don't want to come in monday 
morning with a "Mandrake 9.0 Fianl Released" (as happened with Mandrake 
8.2) with a bunch of stuff broke - like an "almost final" version of 
mozilla.

So if you know 9.0 Final is going to wait for the mozilla folk to cut 
final... great. Otherwise the beta/cvs-snapshot isn't cutting it.

Of course, if you had read the changelog entry, you had seen we are using
the almost final version of Mozilla 1.1 (ie branch point from last week)
and not the 1.1beta.. Moreover, Mozilla 1.1 should be released next week
(and changes are minimal with the current branch version in
beta3/cooker)..
