Considering that it is also on Windows AND Mac OSX, and is free, and is literally only a Google away, I don't feel the need to explain it to you what it does.
It still won't and probably never will work 100%... especially if you care about things like flash ads and easyprivacy sublists. It just hides elements.
Notscript is a terrible clone as well. So they are there, just not as well done due to limitations.
Considering Google's core functionality is ADS and SEARCH, and everything extra is literally done on employee spare time (20% to be exact), I don't think you can honestly expect a timeframe unless Google decides to hire people specifically for it.
.... Which is what Mozilla is actually doing do addons.mozilla.org if your extension is marked compatible with 6.0 and onward, and after testing for code that could break.
Quite the opposite. I'm willing to bet R&D would create a booming economy.
Of course there can't be any math to support this, it's subjective to the technology developed. But I think it would be easy to agree that if you make the "next big thing" that you will earn a lot of money.
a) I still have the same UI. There's a right click setting if you do a fresh install to revert to the old UI. If you upgraded you get the old UI. If you are pedantic there are more UI mods to make it more "normal." I see you never found the menu. b) Read the release notes and you'll see why they don't break. You're literally too lazy to do anything like a typical American. I would also read the definition of heuristic, since it is extremely important. Also I would like to add that changes have been moderate but not major after 4.0 so far and only added new HTML5 technologies and memory fixes. 6.0 took care of your concern about add-ons breaking as the main feature. c) The instructions only apply once. You can backup your settings using FEBE regularly (which by the way can be set to be automatic and with online syncing services like Dropbox or the built in Box.net syncing make it redundant and saved for anywhere) and if something breaks, you can just revert and restore. Again, too lazy to complain to mozilla and not slashdot, where they will gloss over it as angry ranting.
I'm literally telling you how to fix it yet you just trash it. Nevermind that with something as customizable as Firefox, things can (and have) change drastically and Mozilla will be stuck in a hard place if they must change the way Firefox works like they had to starting with 4.0.
1. backup your profile. If you are on windows or you can't command line on linux, use FEBE (yes there's a 3.6 version (scroll down and look in version information), yes it works cross versions), or if linux, cp -r ~/.mozilla ~/.mozillabackup to backup your profile. 2. if windows, use portable firefox. otherwise on linux download the latest executable from the site. you must backup your profile somehow in step one before you do this to allow you to revert and use your settings if you decide to keep your settings. if you are paranoid that some obscure setting wont save use a portable 3.6 and try to clone it. 3. test the new version. if you used portable firefox, you can use FEBE to transfer settings to a real install (portable versions can lag behind drastically). revert if you are pedantic, impatient to configure and install new ui extensions to fix things (like statusbar 4eva, tab mix plus, etc.), or have serious problems.
Literally, don't go apeshit about it. You can do something about it, without addons breaking. New in 6.0 is heuristics for AMO (addons.mozilla.com) plugins to be auto version bumped for beyond versions. You're just gonna whine about it and not take the time to research, nor voice your concern to mozilla, nor know all the facts. By the by, i agree, mozilla should add for enterprise and people who want stability: Stable version and rapid release version of firefox.
New in Firefox 6: All extensions that work with FF 6 will have a heuristic for later versions of FF to determine whether or not the extension is compatible.

This practice in America is mostly dead now though.
Remove Pulseaudio.

It's already out.
Bloatware
Please tell me which feature from vanilla Firefox that needs to be removed.
Actually it ISN'T MOZILLA'S FAULT.
Especially since all add-ons on addons.mozilla.org get version bumped now since 6.0 as long as they pass the heuristic.

I know I am wasting my time replying to the mafiaa AC mouthpiece, but you are a fool to think it's only about free shit. Read the link I just posted.
Research done this way would benefit us all if moneygrubbing assholes like you would just let the fuck go.

Also this applies.
There are fortune 500 companies that rely on VPN, not even including the US military. They wouldn't even consider it.
Why isn't your quote the summary?

You're welcome, I guess.

You can use all of these. Actually I AM USING ALL OF THESE IN 6.0.
