Firefox 36.0.1 fixes numerous bugs

Another new version of Firefox was made available by Mozilla on Thursday. This one seems to consist mostly of bug fixes, although some new functionality was added, including full support for HTTP/2. Compatibility with HTML5 was improved. The release notes claim there were also ‘various security fixes’ but the Security Advisories (aka Known Vulnerabilities) page doesn’t bear that out.

As usual, I learned about the new version from a source other than Mozilla, which is an ongoing source of frustration.

Jeff Rivett has worked with and written about computers since the early 1980s. His first computer was an Apple II+, built by his father and heavily customized. Jeff's writing appeared in Computist Magazine in the 1980s, and he created and sold a game utility (Ultimaker 2, reviewed in the December 1983 Washington Apple Pi Journal) to international markets during the same period. Proceeds from writing, software sales, and contract programming gigs paid his way through university, earning him a Bachelor of Science (Computer Science) degree at UWO. Jeff went on to work as a programmer, sysadmin, and manager in various industries. There's more on the About page, and on the Jeff Rivett Consulting site.
