Changelog:
* The History and Mail&News applications now allow you to reorder columns with drag and drop. For instance, if you prefer to have the date listed first in your mail thread pane, drag the Date header onto the Subject header and the Date column will move to the first position.
* Warnings in the JavaScript console now show the text of the offending line.
* Venkman, the JavaScript Debugger is now available in complete installer builds. Remember to choose 'complete' install, instead of 'typical'. Start the debugger under the Tasks/Tools menu or from the command line with mozilla -venkman.
* Mozilla has a new experimental Tabbed Browsing feature. Press Ctrl+T to open a new tab. (Bug 101973.)
* People who like tabbed browsing may also like the mozilla gestures add-on, Optimoz now available at mozdev.org.
* SOCKS proxies (both v4 and v5) can now be used with all protocols (Bug 89500) except MailNews. Using socks with MailNews is covered by bug 44995.
* Mozilla has a new Site Navigation Bar for navigating sites that use the element (like Bugzilla buglists.) Choose the menu item View | Show/Hide | Site Navigation bar | Show As Only Needed to make the toolbar show up automatically when you visit pages that use the element.
* The View Source window now has a context menu with items for Find, Copy, and Select.
It's hard to be religious when certain people are never incinerated by bolts of lightning.
just a heads up for anyone else out there letting OS X monopolize their time like i have been. omniweb is nice, but so unfinished it makes mozilla look like oracle, Opera beta 5.0 b1.327 rocks very hard, but is just a weeeee too scandi-alien for my tastes - oh and it quits at the first sign of trick xml.
(yeah IE 5.1 is rock solid... but it makes me feel so dirty...)
For all of you using the new tabbed interface of mozilla, its just a simple copy of what the multizilla guys did
[http://multizilla.mozdev.org/] This is a much better interface with many many more features. Give it a try, and report those bugs.
The goal of computer science is to build something that will last at least until we've finished building it.
You can speak about: ...
* security holes of IE
* password-protected list of username/passwords
* integration with search engines
* tab browsing
* faster and more accurate rendering for complex web pages (with many tables)
* full alpha-channel in PNG
* javascript pop-up control
* intelligent cookies/pictures manager
* pretty interface (new modern theme is so sweet)
*
If you can't seem to get the Java plugin to work, please read the instructions in the release notes:a

Seems like OS X is constantly a late release, if it gets released at all.
:-) Part of the reason is that it requires an experimental, pre-release version of Apple's gcc-based compiler.
That's because there are about five people on the planet capable of building Mozilla for OS X, and they are all very busy

You can always take it out of your personal copy of html.css. Open up the jar files in your Mozilla install using some Zip tool until you find it. Edit the file in-place (decent zip tools can do that) to remove the part that references blink.
