Namoroka is just another name they use for the beta/alpha version of FireFox. (Just like Minefield back with Firefox 2.0)

Yes, except this was built from the 'release' source code, so I don't know why it's built tagged like that. Also 3.6.6 is a release version, not a RC version...

Edit:
I've just found the options to build an 'official' release. I'll kick it off later & repackage.

When you get a chance, would you be able to look into making a version of the PND that doesn't use the NAND at all? (No symlinks like the current ones use) I want to use Firefox and Fennec, but want all my data to be on the card so that when I remove it, I don't have any related data on my NAND.

I'd say that's a worthy goal for firefox. I'll add it to the ever growing pile

Just had a quick browse through the code, and it looks like it uses the HOME environment variable to determine where the config files, etc are stored. I'll look at changing the startup script so it changes HOME to the 'correct' path... It should be able to test this by setting HOME up before pnd_run ning the pnd file.

Very nice. I have it running with the following Firefox Add-ons:

Adblock Plus 1.2 (Block ads)
DownloadHelper 4.7.3 (Easily download videos from Youtube and others - Works very well!)
Last tab close button 0.3.2 (Clear last tab)
NoScript 1.9.9.98 (Block extraneous Javascript)

Looking forward to future releases. Thanks.

Nice. I plan on ABP and probably Noscript. I'm also planning on adding Vimperator and working on setting up a set of keybindings for Vimperator that will be Pandora-specific.

For those of you following this saga, I have finally got 3.6.6 with the official branding & optimisations built!
I'll package it up shortly, and add the new location for the settings as mentioned earlier.

It's unlegal to ship the official firefox branding without their consent which mozilla fondation don't give out (see the debian iceweasel debacle)
Cool for the optimisations

any change of 4.0 beta with webM support ?

Actually that's only true if you modify the source code. Which I haven't.

If you choose to distribute Mozilla binaries yourself, you should make the latest stable version available (of course, you probably want to do so as well). If you compile Mozilla unmodified source code (including code and config files in the installer) and do not charge for it, you do not need additional permission from Mozilla to use the relevant Mozilla Mark(s) for your compiled version. So that users get the latest code and security releases, we encourage you to always distribute the most current official release. The notification requirements of the Mozilla Public License have been met for our binaries, so although it's a good idea to do so, you are not required to ship the source code along with the binaries.

I'll try 4.0 beta soonish, but it's deffo not a priority.

The new version is currently at:
Firefox 366 with moved home directory, optimisations and official branding.
Can someone please try it and report back before I put it on the app store.

I can't vouch for what's going on in the background but it all seems to work fine.

hdonk, you must be knackered with everything you have been doing recently!

Thanks again for all the work you have been putting into your projects.
