The Mozilla organization's developer's wiki has sent out the call for a code freeze for what will very likely be the final beta of Firefox 3.5 -- now fully renumbered -- prior to the first Release Candidate. The Quality Assurance process for the frozen code will begin Friday, which means it will be another busy weekend for developers and testers.

|Hopefully the extension coders will up their pace now as there are far too many extensions that don't work with this beta.

|Did anyone have any slow browsing issue while using the beta? I've experienced but am not sure whether it's because of the beta or not. Tried using without my usual extensions and etc. Most of the time it is seen while trying to load facebook. It gets stuck in the middle, sometimes it loads up without all the styles and etc. Have to click on refresh few times to get it loaded properly. Might have something to do with extensions like TabMixPlus but even without that, the page loading is pretty slow. I think I'll wait for the full version.

|and the "New Tab" button finally on by default for the masses...
but in an inconvenient place (retards...) When u open lots of tabs and you need to scroll in the tab bar, the New Tab button gets hidden at the the end of the queue.
jeez... make it always visible or dock it at the beginning

|That's bloody stupid. Steal Opera's way of doing it and make it dock nicely once there's a certain amount of tabs.

|I don't know what version you're using. The button moves to the end but when the tab bar is full it stays in the same place.
