3.5.3s are up, sorry for the delay on that. Totally forgot they released it... :D Hopefully this one is actually appropriately branded as 3.5.3, I haven't had a chance to fire one of them up yet...

As you are running 10.4, according to your UA, you're out of luck. Gecko 1.9.3pre, and thus Minefield, dropped support of 10.4, see bug 501436 and this blogpost by Josh Aas.

Elfurbe, you may want to have a look at the mozconfig in that bug.

Thx, phiw13.

Dropping support for an OS that's not even two years old. (10.4.11 was released in Jan 2008). Nice. Sounds like the main benefit cited is performance. IOW the Moz developers are unable to do what the Safari & WebKit devs achieved, with Safari 4, so they're punting. oh well.

OS X 10.4 Tiger was released in April 2005 according to Wikipedia. 10.5 Leopard came in October 2007.

Once again thank you for the 3.5.3 Build! I am running Snow Leopard on an Intel iMac. The Build is Fast and Stable, as all your as all your Builds. I just have a few add-ons that I love; and not even Nightly Tester Tools will make them work on 3.6apha2. So thank you el Furbe.

Dan :D

Lest anyone worry, my web host changed servers on me which invalidated the ssh host key cached by my build box which broke uploads. Tonight's builds should update normally.

So, not sure if anyone noticed, but updates stopped working at some point, I sure didn't. My PHP script that decides which update you get got screwed up somehow and wasn't returning the size of the MAR file appropriately in the XML sheet which meant Firefox couldn't validate the update integrity. It's fixed now, seemingly. Re-enjoy updates!

3.5.5 and 3.6b1 builds are both up on the site now, if you're into the whole official release thing. I know Mozilla hasn't released 3.5.5 yet, but the tag was in the repo, so I figured why build 3.5.4 when 3.5.5 was right there? Enjoy.

Extensions compatibility check (false) doesn't seem to work with your FXIntel-3.6b3pre-2009.11.10.dmg build...

Thanks.
