Last Week:

  • Finishing up bug 758079 : Ordered list numbers cut off on galaxy nexus

I'm not sure whether we're going to fix this right now, but I'm looking to see what I might be able to add to the project.

SUMO

Feedback on release is super positive (4.1 stars overall for v14 as of midnight--literally thousands of 5-star reviews in the first 24 hours!!), some notable quotes:

Now in version 14.0, the competition goes to Firefox outright. The performance is outstanding - it loads quickly and the framerate is better than the stock browser and Opera Mobile. The user interface is intuitive and a pleasure to use.

Very impressed and glad they listened to the feedback. Thanks mozilla and fellow users.

Smoking fast Wow! Well worth the wait. So much faster than the stock browser and sync gives me all my bookmarks and history.

Best android browser This has overtaken Opera as the best browser. Once you install the phony add on it is perfect. The flash support works better than Opera and the stock browser. Overall perfect cant fault it. Well done Mozilla!

Chrome dumped I just updated Firefox and this is so fast I can't keep up with it and I'm loving it. I just dumped my chrome in favor of this well polished product.

Wow!!! This is the best android app update ever. Smoother than butter scrolling, super fast launch, great UI. Bye Google Chrome , you have been replaced!

Excellent! It's incredible fast! Love it! Switching from chrome to firefox now ;-)

Great Works much better than chrome, dolphin or stock browser. So far....

Flash Enabled !! Thank God that you are Flash enabled now !! The best upgrade ever..

Wow!! I just uninstalled Dolphin on my Evo 4G. I've tried FF a few times only to be left with disappointment. Not this time, I decided to try it again after reading about it on Wired/Webmonkey and it is FAST! and *apple* smooth. Thank you!!

Such a massive update!!! Work great!!! this update take me to look back to fitefix on desktop

Simply the best! Amazing update!!! The best browser for Android at the moment. Starts instantly! Very fast. Supports Flash (suck it Chrome). Easy to use. Made it my browser, deleted all other. Keep up good work, Mozilla!!!

Incredible The new firefox is super fast, feature rich, beautiful and just awesome. I have finally found a browser that I will consistently use.

Great experience Since the 14.0 Firefox has improved so much.. I was struggling b/w Chrome Beta and Firefox Beta.. and I guess Firefox will be my primary choice specially due to startup time improvement. I use Firefox on desktop, so this make perfect combination :)

Awsom Have been using Firefox for years and just recently switched from iOS to Android, and amazed by the fact that I can continue using Firefox as my primary browser. Love it!!!! Poor iOS users don't know what they're missing.


Issues: Main issue, representing the largest percentage of low reviews in first 24hrs is lack of tablet support/tablet blockage
