What's New in Firefox 1.5
Firefox 1.5 is the next version of our award-winning Web browser.
Here's what's new in Firefox 1.5:
* Automated update to streamline product upgrades. Notification of an
update is more prominent, and updates to Firefox may now be half a
megabyte or smaller. Updating extensions has also improved.
* Faster browser navigation with improvements to back and forward
button performance.
* Drag and drop reordering for browser tabs.
* Improvements to popup blocking.
* Clear Private Data feature provides an easy way to quickly remove
personal data through a menu item or keyboard shortcut.
* Answers.com is added to the search engine list.
* Improvements to product usability including descriptive error pages,
redesigned options menu, RSS discovery, and "Safe Mode" experience.
* Better accessibility including support for DHTML accessibility and
assistive technologies such as the Window-Eyes 5.5 beta screen reader
for Microsoft Windows. Screen readers read aloud all available
information in applications and documents or show the information on a
Braille display, enabling blind and visually impaired users to use
equivalent software functionality as their sighted peers.
* Report a broken Web site wizard to report Web sites that are not
working in Firefox.
* Better support for Mac OS X (10.2 and greater) including profile
migration from Safari and Mac Internet Explorer.
* New support for Web Standards including SVG, CSS 2 and CSS 3, and
JavaScript 1.6.
* Many security enhancements.

NetBSD the thread safe resolver is only available on __NetBSD_Version__
>= 299000900. Fixes runtime usage on NetBSD 2.1. New Versions:
- firefox-1.0.6nb2
- firefox-gtk1-1.0.6nb2
- mozilla-1.7.11nb1
- mozilla-gtk2-1.7.11nb1
- thunderbird-1.0.6nb1
- thunderbird-gtk1-1.0.6nb1
It has (probably long since) been replaced by configuration checks
in firefox's configure script. The resulting source still compiles
and works on netbsd-1-5 / i386.
Here's what's new in this release of Firefox:
* New Default Theme
An updated Default Theme now presents a uniform appearance across all
three platforms - a new crisp, clear look for Windows
users. Finetuning for GNOME will follow in future releases.
* Comprehensive Data Migration
Switching to Firefox has never been easier now that Firefox imports
data like Favorites, History, Settings, Cookies and Passwords from
Internet Explorer. Firefox can also import from Mozilla 1.x, Netscape
4.x, 6.x and 7.x, and Opera. MacOS X and Linux migrators for browsers
like Safari, OmniWeb, Konqueror etc. will arrive in future releases.
* Extension/Theme Manager
New Extension and Theme Managers provide a convenient way to manage
and update your add-ons. SmartUpdate also notifies you of updates to
Firefox.
* Help
A new online help system is available.
* Lots of bug fixes and improvements
Copy Image, the ability to delete individual items from Autocomplete
lists, SMB/SFTP support on GNOME via gnome-vfs, better Bookmarks,
Search and many other refinements fine tune the browsing experience.
For Linux/GTK2 Users
* Look and Feel Updates
Ongoing improvements have been made to improve the way Firefox adheres
to your GTK2 themes, such as menus.
* Talkback for GTK2
Help us nail down crashes by submitting talkback reports with this
crash reporting tool.
