Beta test FireFox

The Quality Assurance (QA) bods at open-source browser specialists Mozilla Foundation are appealing for help testing the forthcoming versions of their software.

The release of Firefox 1.0.6, Thunderbird 1.0.6, and Mozilla Suite 1.7.10 is fast approaching, designed to address some API issues in the Firefox and Thunderbird 1.0.5 releases. They want to test these versions to destruction before they become official patches, to avoid any embarrassing glitches.

Here are links to all of the builds:

Firefox: Windows, Mac, Linux
Tbird: Windows, Mac, Linux
Suite: Windows, Mac, Linux

Things to look for in these builds:

• Extensions that interact with web content and events - test on a wide variety of content types
  
• For Thunderbird, please test the Enigmail Extension
  
• Test extensions that you normally use to make sure that they function properly

Any issues, problems or bugs should be reported to the official QA Blog.
