This is just to bring you up-to-date with the changes since the 2003-03-02 build

If you find problems/bugs:

1. Post them in this thread
2. Properly describe the problem
3. Include the url where you have the problem (if this is the case)
4. Include the "about mozilla firefox" information (under the help button)
5. Installer build or .zip version?
6. Did you completely erase the Firefox directory first?
7. Does a new profile fix the problem?
8. Include the list of extensions you have installed (preferably none to start with)

This makes it a lot easier for others to duplicate your problem.

The bugs list you posted as fixed, Are they fixed in this build?

[Peter(6)]

They should be, if a build is ever released.
No errors since long, but the build still isn't there

[arunsub]

I see most of the bug fixes you listed here are also listed in 03/04 list also.

[Peter(6)]

There wasn't a new build since 2004-03-02 so all fixes will stay in the list till the newer build arrives.
Than I start fresh again.

[djl47]

It seems that the nightly Windows builds are skipped more often than the other nightly builds. What criteria drives the creation of a nightly Windows build?
Thanks

[Peter(6)]

yeah, I'd like to know that too.
Even 'succesfull builds' are not released for one or another reason
All those lists are getting way too long if this continous.

To make things worse, the building machine vanished from the tinderbox page, so aperently it's broken.
Ah well, the next release, whenever it comes has a garanteed high number of fixes than

I did say a couple of days ago that your post - "preannouncing" a nightly build might lead to confusion and disappointment. By all means keep a list of what has been checked in but at the end of the day it is the Developers who determine whether to let a build occur or not.
We often go many many days in the past without an official nightly.

I'm sorry you took my previous post as a flame.

[Peter(6)]

at least you'll know what's coming

The Windows build machine, Gabrielle, is broken, and the current code flux is causing bustage for those of us independent of mozilla.org.
