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.

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.
