October 23rd, 2006
This news is not official yet according to Mozilla, but the binaries for Firefox 2.0 have been posted on their ftp.
Official announcement to come tomorrow.

According to an inside source, the code is pretty much the same as RC3. The only thing that really bugs me (although some people might like it) is the “close tab” button being on every tab. To change this behavior, put “about:config” in your address bar and look for the option that says “browser.tabs.closeButtons”. I like to use option 3, which is the old Firefox behavior, and puts the close button on the far right of the tab bar. Change should be instant.
