Meet the browser: Firefox Next

Inbound isn't a reference to the nightly channel is it?

its another channel.(Stuff generally lands from it to central after testing or stay there and lands before merging)

More or less many stuff lands from inbound (up coming), its rare that they backout so I sometime put reference of them.

The new look of the forum looks nice.But is it me or the loading of the forum and various features in it is dead slow?Like at least 30 sec till it loads what i click?

It's a Neowin's problem, not related to firefox ;)

"no"? I asked "when", so by "no", do you mean "never"?

lol apologizes i was probably half asleep back then :p The bug is blocked by this one , D2D is messing up at resizing , so last time when i asked (2 months ago) , they said enhanced personas will land once this D2D bug will be fixed , which is inactive since long...

FF7 seems to be a life saver!

The increase is actually very high compared to previous flat versions , also there is lots of positive response :D And then firefox 8 will have some UI changes and even more memory reductions , finally Firefox 9 will come with TI :D Things are changing up now

Ee-yup! and even less RAM usage then 9.0a1. ;-)

Hmm...are you sure? I can't imagine there being much difference between yesterday's build and today's. I didn't notice any memory-related bug fixes, either.

64 bit Flash works great! PornTube, YouTube, you name it! Silverlight 64 bit works great. PDF Exchange or Sumatra are your only 2 PDF viewers at the moment. If you want a stable build of Firefox 7 x64 I recommend WaterFox. He does not alter or tweak anything! He simply compiles the build from Mozilla and optimizes it run effeciently on a 64-bit platform. Firefox x64 is and has been stable for linux for quite a while now. Waterfox is on sourceforge and provides links for all the known 64 bit plug-ins.

Thanks for posting! If you're using the 64 bit version, then I assume you're using 64 bit Flash 11 as well? There's no problems with it crashing? It's stable enough for everyday use with Youtube? I have yet to try Flash 11, but I might if I hear it's stable enough.
