Firefox 35.0.1 fixes several bugs

A new version of Firefox was released by Mozilla yesterday. Version 35.0.1 includes fixes for various crashing and security issues.

There was no announcement from Mozilla for Firefox 35.0.1. As usual, I learned of the new release from non-Mozilla web sites. The struggle continues.

Although there have been some improvements to the release notes for Firefox, it’s still often difficult to determine whether the items listed changed in the version being discussed, or in a previous version. For instance, while all the items at the top of the list marked as ‘Fixed’ also refer to version 35.0.1, nothing else on the list refers to a specific version. Many of those items do in fact look like they are related to Firefox 35.0. There’s a link to ‘various security issues‘, but again it’s not clear what on that list is specific to version 35.0.1.

The ‘complete list of changes‘ link to Bugzilla is still not much help.
