Firefox 2.0.0.14 is now available and I have put together Intel Mac optimized builds, available below.
Unless Mozilla releases a major update I’ll probably skip every other maintenance / bug release as they seem to be monthly, and I just don’t have the extra time to build new releases every month. Just so you know.
I know I promised G4 builds last time and I still plan to get to these for the 2.0.0.14 release. The main issue is the only G4 machine I have is a Powerbook and it takes forever to build Firefox on it… but I’ll do my best to build for this platform when I have a spare moment.
Here’s what’s new in 2.0.0.14 according to the Mozilla change notes:
That’s it!
Download
Intel Mac-optimized Firefox 2.0.0.14
G5-optimized Firefox 2.0.0.14
As I mentioned about, G4 builds should be when I have some time to actually get to them.
Why is the name / icon different?
I really shouldn’t have to keep repeating this, but every time I post a new Firefox release I still seem to get people annoyed / pissed off / confused as to why these builds are missing the Firefox name and icon. So here comes the strong emphasis:
The Firefox name and icon are trademarked and cannot be used with non-official builds. These are non-official builds, so they cannot have the official branding. Pretty straight-forward. Please don’t ask me to build versions with the official branding.
As always, feel free to post your thoughts / experiences / etc. in the comments. Enjoy!
