Hi,
I just read the release announcement for RHEL 5.2beta:
https://www.redhat.com/archives/rhelv5-announce/2008-March/msg00000.html
And something caught my eye:
--8<----------------------------------------- * Laptop and Desktop Enhancement + Suspend and Hibernate improvements + Re-base of the top Desktop applications - Evolution 2.12.3 - Firefox 3 - OpenOffice 2.3.0 - Thunderbird 2.0 + Updated graphics drivers --8<-----------------------------------------
I see that the folks from Red Hat decided to completely ignore Firefox 2.0: an eloquent detail.
Now it's more than once that I've read good things about Firefox 3. Much less RAM-hungry than it's predecessors, excellent standards compliance, much more stable. What's the best way to get Firefox 3 on my CentOS 5.1? Is there some RPM for RHEL somewhere? Some SRPM? Or simply wait patiently for CentOS 5.2?
Aside: I use XFCE, not GNOME, so I don't have to go through the chore of updating some core GNOME components (like Yelp).
Cheers,
Niki
