  1. Shame on you Firefox Developers by MackTK · · Score: 1, Flamebait

    I just want to register my disgust at the behaviour and unprofesionalism of the people overseeing this project. The way they have treated the artist who contributed so much of his time is appaling.

    This is almost enough to push me to another browser.

    SHAME ON YOU!

  2. This is why 'Open Source' projects are hamstrung.. by FatSean · · Score: 0, Flamebait

    Nobody wants to do the grunt work. Everybody wants to diddle themselves over how they added some interface feature that's super cool and customizable. Sure there are those who do the hard stuff but they seem to be a minority.

  3. Fisher Price Theme for XP! by Prototerm · · Score: 0, Flamebait
    Mozila should default to a Fisher Price theme, so it fits in with the default look-and-feel of Windows XP.

    Interesting that the smallest market share, OS X, should determine the default look-and-feel of Mozilla everywhere.

    Suggestion: Ship Mo with several themes, and make sure the user knows how to change it. The default should match the user's OS, and not the one some developer or artist working on Mo is using.
