Firefox 16 Released: More HTML5 Support 133
Today Mozilla released the final version of Firefox 16, which includes a number of new tools for developers. "A number of HTML5 code has been 'unprefixed,' which means that Mozilla has decided it has matured enough to run in the browser without causing instability. The newly unshackled HTML5 includes CSS3 Animations, Transforms, Transitions, Image Values, Values and Units, and IndexedDB. Two Web APIs that Mozilla helped to create, Battery API and Vibration API, are also now unprefixed. These changes help keep Firefox competitive, but it also sends a signal to developers that Mozilla thinks these are good enough to begin baking into their sites. It's a strong endorsement of the 'future-Web' tech." Here's the complete change list and the download page.

They're calling it quits? Or did you mean the "latest" version of Firefox?

I think there's something wrong with this version of Firefox. I just updated, and not a single one of my plugins was disabled because of incompatibility!
Maybe someone should make a "Firefox Nostalgia" plugin. It detects when firefox is updated, and generates a random "The following plugins have been disabled..." alert window.

The change in air pressure caused by the speed at which that joke flew past your head did not make the traditional "Woosh" noise but rather caused a huge sonic bang which caused thirteen kittens in the area to become deaf. I hope you're happy.

This is Firefox 16 v1.0. The first bugfix release will be Firefox 16 v2.0.
