 Though almost everybody (I mean the more experts) prefers Firefox to IE, Fernando Cassia writes those eleven as:
1. The concept of “language packs” lost in the “one Firefox installer for every language”.
2. Why deliver security fixes as “new versions”, instead of patches?.
3. Mozilla Foundation should offer users the option an integrated solution for Web browsing and e-mail, delivered as a single download and install.
4. If Thunderchicken is the buddy program for Firefox, and it does e-mail, isn’t it just logical to name it Firefox Mailer?
5. What happens when you run two or three applications at once for the GRE “runtime engine”.
6. No splash screen as a minor annoyance.
7. No “CCK” like what used to exist in Netscape.
8. NO FTP UPLOADS.
9. BRING BACK THE TABBED SIDEBAR.
10. Outside voices have little saying in the future direction of Firefox, or Thunderbird.
11. An INSTANT MESSENGER (coded in xul) should be integrated.
No way to disagree with some of them, as the others does not seem so important.
